A statement of the coupled thermomechanical problem on forced resonant vibrations and dissipative heating of hinged viscoelastic elastomeric rectangular plate is given with account of prestresses applied.  The statement is based on the standard Kirchhoff-Love hypotheses and concept of complex characteristics that are used to describe the viscoelastic material response to harmonic loading.  Both steady-state and transient thermal response is investigated.  Influence of the prestress is studied in details for both uniaxial and biaxial preliminary stresses applied.  Dissipative heating temperature histories are calculated for the variety of the prestress and loading parameters.  Temperature criterion is adopted to determine the critical state.  The data obtained are used for the plate fatigue life prediction and the prestress effect on the plate response.
