Abstract
Analytic solutions to a wide variety of boundary-value problems in nonlinear elastostatics for incompressible materials have been obtained in the literature. Comparable results for compressible materials have not been obtained. Of course, the main difficulty is the-absence of the simplified kinematics arising from the incompressibility constraint. Some progress in the analytic solution of boundary-value problems for certain classes of compressible materials has taken place in recent years (see e.g. the references listed below). The present paper is concerned with further developments in this direction.
