Abstract
The problem of obtaining the stress distribution within semi-infinite solids bounded by two concentric cones with a common apex is formulated in terms of a fourth order ordinary differential equation. This is accomplished by using a recently developed theory for obtaining similarity solutions of partial differential equations. Such a formulation is valid when the external loadings are proportional to an arbitrary real number power of the distance from the apex. Closed solutions are given for these equations.
