Abstract
We consider the solution of the problem of elastic equilibrium of a three-dimensional orthotropic plate in the absence of displacements on the end surfaces under the action of forces applied to the lateral surfaces. The solution of the original problem by Vekua's method is reduced to the solution of a recursive sequence of two-dimensional problems. A numerical solution of these problems is obtained by computer using the finite-difference method. The effect of the number of Legendre polynomials on the accuracy with which the boundary conditions are satisfied is investigated.
