Abstract

The antiplane elastic deformation of a homogeneous isotropic prestretched cylindrical body is studied in a nonlinear formulation in actual–state variables under incompressibility conditions, the absence of volume forces, and under constant lateral loading along the generatrix. The boundary–value problem of axial displacement is obtained in Cartesian and complex variables and sufficient ellipticity conditions for this problem are indicated in terms of the elastic potential. The similarity to a plane vortex–free gas flow is established. The problem is solved for Mooney and Rivlin—Sonders materials simulating strong elastic deformations of rubber–like materials. Axisymmetric solutions are considered.
