Non-homogeneous conformal deformations are shown to be possible in an isotropic elastic material in the absence of body forces if and only if the material satisfies a certain condition which renders it incapable of obeying the classical pressure-compression inequality. The undistorted states of mate

โฆ Synopsis
For an important class of incompressible isotropic elastic solids, the response function for the extra stress is a (tensor-valued) function of scalar type. It is shown here that the stress response for compressible isotropie elastic solids cannot be of scalar type.

An empirically established rule of Wroth' for the dependence of the shear modulus on the mean effective pressure and the overconsolidation ratio in clays is investigated within the framework of non-linear elasticity. The resulting isotropic-deviatoric coupling is derived and compared to experiments.
