8πμ(λ +
2μ)/(λ + μ). We take the elastic half-space to be a Poisson solid withλ = μ.
To reduce the solutions to those for point forces of unit magnitude, required for the
evaluation of the dip-slip and strike-slip integrals, they must then be divided by
12πμ. The point force in the solution of Mindlin problem I is in the x 3 -direction.
That for Mindlin problem II is in the x 1 -direction. To obtain the required solution
for a point force in the x 2 -direction, the expressions for the first two components
are exchanged along with the exchange of variables x 1 and x 2 ,aswellasξ 1 andξ 2 .

r 2 and r 3 are the distances to the field point, measured normal and down-dip to
the fault, while q 2 and q 3 are the distances to the field point, measured normal and
up-dip to the image fault. With these abbreviations, we have
