Description of the problem
To verify the mathematical model of ELPLA for rigid circular raft, results of a rigid circular raft obtained by other analytical solutions from Borowicka (1939) and Stark (1990) (Section 5.2, page 106) are compared with those obtained by ELPLA.
The vertical displacement w [m] of a rigid circular raft on Isotropic elastic-half space medium may be evaluated According to Borowicka (1939).
