Equation (1) above can be derived from kinematic assumptions and the constitutive relations for the plate. Equations (2) are the two equations for the conservation of linear momentum in two dimensions where it is assumed that the out–of–plane stresses (σ 33 ,σ 13 ,σ 23

While the Föppl–von Kármán equations are of interest from a purely mathematical point of view, the physical validity of these equations is questionable.[ 7] [ 8] The two-dimensional von Karman equations for plates, originally proposed by von Karman [1910], play a mythical role in applied mathematics. While they have been abundantly, and satisfactorily, studied from the mathematical standpoint, as regards notably various questions of existence, regularity, and bifurcation, of their solutions, their physical soundness has been often seriously questioned. Reasons include the facts that
the theory depends on an approximate geometry which is not clearly defined
a given variation of stress over a cross-section is assumed arbitrarily
a linear constitutive relation is used that does not correspond to a known relation between well defined measures of stress and strain
some components of strain are arbitrarily ignored
there is a confusion between reference and deformed configurations which makes the theory inapplicable to the large deformations for which it was apparently devised. Conditions under which these equations are actually applicable and will give reasonable results when solved are discussed in Ciarlet.[ 8] [ 9]

In the derivation of the Föppl–von Kármán equations the main kinematic assumption (also known as the Kirchhoff hypothesis ) is that surface normals to the plane of the plate remain perpendicular to the plate after deformation. It is also assumed that the in-plane (membrane) displacements are small and the change in thickness of the plate is negligible. These assumptions imply that the displacement field u [ 10]

The first terms are the usual small-strains, for the mid-surface. The second terms, involving squares of displacement gradients, are non-linear, and need to be considered when the plate bending is fairly large (when the rotations are about 10 – 15 degrees). These first two terms together are called the membrane strains . The last terms, involving second derivatives, are the flexural (bending) strains . They involve the curvatures. These zero terms are due to the assumptions of the classical plate theory, which assume elements normal to the mid-plane remain inextensible and line elements perpendicular to the mid-plane remain normal to the mid-plane after deformation.

If we assume that the Cauchy stress tensor components are linearly related to the von Kármán strains by Hooke's law , the plate is isotropic and homogeneous, and that the plate is under a plane stress condition,[ 11] σ 33 σ 13 σ 23
