Boussinesq is for a footing atop a half space, but I have seen a chart for a buried plate with negative contours above the plate that were not just a mirror image of those below. I'm interested in influence of consecutive plates. I thought it was Prandtl but found nothing in a search. Can someone direct me to a picture?
