Abstract
The problems of a concentrated point force in an infinite medium (Kelvin's problem), or applied normal to the boundary of a half-space (Boussinesq's problem), as well as the corresponding problems for a concentrated couple, are solved to second order for incompressible isotropic elastic solids. The solutions are based on a simplified form of the second-order equations, obtained previously, and use of the Love's function representation for axisymmetric problems in the linear theory.
