Abstract In the framework of porous media model developed from mixtures theory, the dynamic response of incompressible soil foundation subjected harmonic loads is investigated by analytical method. General solutions of coupling equations are obtained using Fourier transform for two-dimensional saturated soil. In accordance with the boundary condition of ideal permeability at upper surface, integral forms solutions of solid displacement, fluid displacement, pore pressure and solid skeleton stress are presented. In addition, the dynamic response of a saturated layer under harmonic loads is researched by numerical example.
