Abstract
Several closed form finite strain equilibrium solutions are presented for a special compressible isotropic elastic material which was proposed as a model for foam rubber by Blatz and Ko. These solutions include bending of a cylindrical sector into another sector or a rectangular block, bending of a block into a sector, expansion, compaction or eversion of cylinders or spheres, and torsion and extension of circular cylinders or tubes.
