Description of the problem
To verify the mathematical model of ELPLA for rigid square raft, the results of a rigid square raft obtained by other analytical solutions from Kany (1974), Fraser/ Wardle (1976), Chow (1987), Li / Dempesy (1988) and Stark (1990) (Section 5.4, page 114) are compared with those obtained by ELPLA.
The vertical displacement w [m] of a rigid square raft on Isotropic elastic-half space medium may be evaluated by ..........
