“…First fundamental contributions in this direction, any of whose basic ideas already appear in Friedrichs-Dressler [31] and Goldenveizer [32], were obtained by Ciarlet-Destuynder [15,16] with the justification of the classical bi-harmonic model of Kirchhoff-Love the bending of symmetrie plates. The application of this method to different situations (linear and nonlinear elasticity, composite and anisotropic materials, static, dynamic and thermoelastic cases, homogenization and so on) has provided important contributions, among which, without attempting to be exhaustive, we mention the works of Caillerie [8], Ciarlet [12,14], CiarletRabier [21], Destuynder [25,26,28], Raoult [42][43][44], Blanchard [4], CiarletKesavan [17], Blanchard-Ciarlet [5], Viano [46], Kohn-Vogelius [37][38][39], Cioranescu-Saint Jean Paulin [23], Davet [24], Blanchard-Francfort [6], Ciarlet-Le Dret [18], Quintela Estevez [40,41], Alvarez Vazquez-Quintela Estevez [2]. A complete analysis of plate models with exhaustive bibliographie références may be found in Ciarlet [14].…”
