heal.abstract	The relation for the difference of principal stresses expressed in terms of Muskhelishvili's complex potential was transformed to an integral equation for the case of a half-plane in contact. Two methods for the numerical solution of the integral equation were developed and a study for the appropriate selection of the collocation points was made. The existence of a solution of the equation and the possibility of applying an iterative process was shown. As an example, the method was succesfully applied for solving the problem of a half-plane loaded by either a uniform, or a parabolic, distribution of forces. © 1982 Springer-Verlag.	en
