The proper weight of the layer should be taken into consideration. The stated problem for the semi-infinite layer is formulated in terms of the boundary value problem                                   * * * , , u ( ) ( , , ) (3 2 ) v ( ) ( , , ) (3 2 ) w ( ) ( , , ) (3 2 ) G G X x y z G T G G Y x y z G T G G Z x y z G T (2) Here           2 2 2 2 2 2 x y z is a Laplace's differential operator,  * u ( , , ) x u x y z ,  * v ( , , ) y u x y z ,  * w ( , , ) z u x y z - unknown displacements,            , , , f f f f f f x y z , , , X Y Z are the components of the proper weight force. λ, G are Lame's constants and       u ( , , ) v ( , , ) w ( , , ) , x y z x y z x y z is a volume expansion, α is a coefficient of linear expansion. One must solve the boundary value problem with the following boundary conditions. The conditions of an ideal contact are given at the layer’s edge  0 x and at the lower face  0 z         * 0 0 0 u 0, 0, 0 xz xy x x x (3)         * 0 0 0 w 0, 0, 0 zx zy z z z (4) The pressure load ( , ) p x y distributed on the segments    [0, ], [ , ] x A y B B is applied at the upper face  z h           ( , ), 0, 0 z zx zy z h z h z h p x y (5) The authors propose to solve the previously the stated problem for the subcase when the unit normal loading is applied to an arbitrary point on the upper face of the layer. The solution to this problem could be used as an influence function to construct the solution for the stated loading. For this subcase the boundary conditions (5) take the form              ( ) ( ), 0, 0 z zx zy z h z h z h x a y b (6)  ( ) x - Dirac’s function. The field of displacements and stress should be found. The temperature ( , , ) T x y z , on the right hand parts of Lame’s equations (2), is unknown. It’s needed to solve the corresponding thermoconductivity problem for the layer (1) with the same Lame’s constants. These values will be used as known in further calculations.
