Using the constitutive equation given by Gao [Theor. Appl. Fracture Mech. 14, 219-231 (1990)] for rubber-like materials, this paper analyses the stress distribution and the deformation pattern near the apex of a cone that is under the tension of a concentrated force. The problem is treated as an axial symmetry case. Infinite strain is taken into account and the analytical result is presented. When the cone angle is 180 degrees the solution of the nonlinear Boussinesq problem is obtained. [References: 7]
