The Melan and Mindlin Problems

, 2013
This chapter is devoted to solve the equilibrium problem of a linearly elastic isotropic half-space, subject to a load concentrated at an interior point. The two-dimensional version is named after Ernst Melan (1890–1963), who solved it in 1932; the three-dimensional version was studied and solved in 1936 by Raymond D.
