TL;DR: In this paper, the problem of the buckling and lateral vibration of rectangular plates subject to in-plane loads is treated by using a Ritz approach for both the determination of the middle surface stresses caused by the inplane loading and the analysis of the consequent out-of-plane buckled and vibrational characteristics of the plates.
