# The Mindlin Fundamental Solution - A Fourier Approach This notebook contains the methodology and source code to derive the Mindlin fundamental solution (point force in elastic half-space with free surface) in a partial Fourier coordinate system. It uses the superoposition of the Kelvin and the Boussinesq fundamental solutions. ### Dependencies Only sympy is required for this notebook. ### Citing Please cite as > Frérot, L. 2018.
