An analytical computational scheme for nonlinear dynamic characteristics and stability of an eccentrically composite orthotropic plate on Winkler-Pasternak elastic foundation subjected to different axial velocities is proposed with the incorporation of mercurial damping effects under thermal environment. Incorporating the classical plate theory and Von-Kármán strain-displacement relation, the nonlinear compatibility equation is derived. The Galerkin method and Airy's stress function are implemented to establish the nonlinear dynamic buckling equation accommodating the thermal and damping effects. Then the developed nonlinear differential equations are solved numerically by the fourth-order Runge-Kutta method. The characteristics of natural frequency, linear and nonlinear vibration, frequency-amplitude curve and nonlinear dynamic responses are investigated by the developed approach with validations by other literatures. The nonlinear dynamic buckling loads are determined by using Budiansky-Roth criterion. Additionally, various effects of velocity, damping ratio, temperature change, buckling mode, initial imperfection and foundation parameter on nonlinear dynamic buckling of the orthotropic plate are discussed.
