    • A script that solves the linear complementarity problem associated with 
    the Boussinesq contact mechanics problem


      h = K*p+g, h'*p=0, h,p >=0,


    where the unknown h is the gap between two elastic (half-space) bodies and the unknown p is the corresponding contact pressure. It can also be found at file exchange at the MATLAB Central
