Abstract: | The action of an external reactive medium on the components of operational structures often changes the physicomechanical properties of the material, which markedly affects its carrying capacity. This means that the real properties of the material, including the formation of such inhomogeneities, must be taken more thoroughly into account. In the present work, the stability of an isotropic plate whose elastic characteristics are continuous functions of the Cartesian coordinate is investigated.L'vov University, Ukraine.
