Abstract: In this paper, the bicubic splines in product form are used to construct the multi-field functions for bending moments, twisting moment and transverse displacement ofthe plate on elastic foundation. The multivariable spline element equations are derived,based on the mixed variational principle. The analysis and calculations of bending,vibration and stability of the plates on elastic foundation are presented in the paper.Because the field functions of plate on elastic foundation are assumed independently,the precision of the field variables of bending moments and displacement is high.
