In this paper, we present a series of basic theorems for transversely isotropic plates characterized by a state of bending. More precisely, we show a reciprocal theorem and a uniqueness result without positive definiteness assumptions on the elastic coefficients. Moreover, we establish some variational and minimum principles. Finally, we give a Galerkin representation of the solution. Copyright © 2009 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
