    This paper discusses the large deflection bending behavior of plates subjected to bending moments along two opposite edges and free on the other two opposite edges. Isotropic and laminated fiber-reinforced composite plates with small initial curvatures are discussed. It is shown that when the applied moments become large, the classical anticlastic saddle shape disappears and the plate flattens laterally to become more cylindrical in nature. This phenomenon is due to nonlinear geometric effects.
