Abstract
The basic equations of the Reissner and Mindlin plate theories are derived in an elementary way from the underlying assumptions of the theories about the distribution of in-plane stresses in the Reissner case and the distribution of displacement components in the Mindlin case. The derived equations include a parameter which allows the interpretation of the theories as an approximation of isotropic plates or transversally inextensible plates. Qualitative comportment between the theories is also given.
