We consider a quarter-plane of compressible hyperelastic material of harmonic-type undergoing finite plane deformations. The plane is subjected to mixed (free-fixed) boundary conditions. In contrast to the analogous case from classical linear elasticity, we find that the deformation field is smooth in the vicinity of the vertex and is actually bounded at the vertex itself. In particular, the normal displacement remains positive eliminating the possibility of material interpenetration. Finally, explicit expressions for Cauchy and Piola stress distributions are obtained in the vicinity of the vertex.
