A finite element program capable of analysing finite plane strain deformations of incompressible rubberlike (Mooney–Rivlin) materials has been developed. Two problems, namely a long wall loaded uniformly in two directions and a thick‐wall cylindrical pressure vessel loaded internally, have been solved. The computed values of displacements, strains, stresses and hydrostatic pressure agree very closely with their values obtained analytically.
