Scientific paper

We present exact results for the contact forces in a three dimensional static
piling of identical, stiff and frictionless spheres. The pile studied is a
pyramid of equilateral triangular base (``stack of cannonballs'') with a FCC
(face centered cubic) structure. We show in particular that, as for the two
dimensional case, the pressure on the base of such a pile is uniform.
