We consider the contact problem for a particular class of compressible hyperelastic materials of harmonic type undergoing finite plane deformations. Using complex variable techniques, we derive subsidiary results concerning a half-plane problem corresponding to this class of materials. Using these results, we solve the contact problem for a harmonic material in the case of a uniform load acting on a finite area. Finally, we show how we can then deduce the corresponding results for the case of a point load.
