Abstract Equations of elasticity and consolidation for a porous elastic material containing a fluid have been previously established (1, 5). General solutions of these equations for the isotropic case are developed, giving directly the displacement field or the stress field in analogy with the Boussinesq-Papkovitch solution and the stress functions of the theory of elasticity. General properties of the solutions also are examined and the viewpoint of eigenfunctions in consolidation problems is introduced.
