Abstract
This paper deals with equilibrium problems for solids made of elastic materials of bounded tensile strength and for which exact solutions ar e achieved. A constitutive equation is adopted and its main properties with regard to uniqueness of the solution to boundary problems are al so analyzed. Four distinct equilibrium problems are then considered. T he first three are characterized by specific symmetry conditions-polar , spherical, and cylindrical, respectively.
