A ground engineering software developed by Bora Okumusoglu for estimating stress distribution in the semi-infinite solid body (the ground) resulting from surface loads. The software was initially programmed in 2005–2006 as part of his Master's thesis titled Stress distribution and elasto plastic settlements under shallow foundations.

• Multihreading for greatly faster calculations starting at Commit 822fe44.

• Code refactoring to ease future work like Commit 2d8403f.

• Ready-to-use executable files (binaries) for all (Windows, Linux and Mac) PC platforms as listed under Releases.

X11 is required to compile the code in Linux / Mac environment. Mac OS X will require XQuartz.

In Windows, nothing is required except a C++ compiler like Visual Studio(VS).

For Linux / Mac environment, simply use the makefile by

cd source
make

And then run the compiled code:

cd .. # go back to top directory
cd build
./ZeminGeril

For Windows, just use the provided VS file ZeminGeril.sln to compile.

There are some precompiled files under build folder. Windows EXE file will require Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable runtime files installed on the system.
