Based on generalized variational principles,an element called MR-12 was constructed for the static and dynamic analysis of thin plates with orthogonal anisotropy.Numerical results showed that this incompatible clement converges very rapidly and has good accuracy.It was demonstrated that generalized variational principles are useful and effective in founding incompatible element.Moreover,element MR-12 is easy for implementation since it does not differ very much from the common rectangular element R-12 of thin plate.
