Abstract:  We present a theory of two-level additive Schwarz 
           preconditioners for plate elements.  It is applicable to the 
           cases where the finite element spaces on the two levels are 
           (I) conforming and nested, (II) conforming and nonnested, and 
           (III) nonconforming and nonnested.  The condition number of 
           the preconditioned system is independent of the mesh sizes 
           and the number of subdomains in the case of generous overlap.
