Abstract
A new class of compressible elastic solids, which includes the Blatz-K o material as a special case, is proposed. A closed-form solution is c onstructed and studied for a bifurcation problem modeling void formati on in this class of compressible elastic solids. The relation between the void-formation condition and the material parameters is obtained a nalytically. An energy comparison of the void-formation deformation an d the homogeneous expansion deformation is carried out.
