OkadaPy
OkadaPy is a Python package that provides an efficient implementation of the analytical equations for deformation in an isotropic elastic half-space, as set out in Okada, 1992.
These equations describe the displacement induced by either a finite rectangular source or an infinitesimal point source in an isotropic elastic half-space. It is a free and open-source alternative to a number of functions available in the MATLAB package Coulomb3.4, primarily:
computing displacements induced by the aforementioned sources;
computing the corresponding strain and stress tensors from these displacements;
and visualising these fields.
The source code for the project is hosted on GitHub.

Contributing to OkadaPy
Contributions to OkadaPy are welcomed. The first stop should be to reach out, either directly or—preferably—via the GitHub Issues panel, to discuss the proposed changes. Next, simply fork the OkadaPy repository, install the package with the developer options enabled (that is, using pip install okadapy[dev]), make your changes/add your new contribution, then make a [pull request](https://help.github.com/articles/about-pull-requests/). All contributors to OkadaPy will be listed as authors on the releases.
Bug reports, suggestions for new features and enhancements, and even links to projects that have made use of OkadaPy are most welcome.
