Abstract
This paper is concerned with the transient creep problems of shells of revolution under an axisymmetric load. The mathematical theory of creep as it applies to shells of revolution is developed for two hardening laws-the time and the strain hardening laws, and the basic differential equations derived are numerically solved by finite difference method. As a numerical example the torispherical head of a pressure vessel which is composed of a spherical, a toroidal and a cylindrical shell is analyzed with the computer program developed for two hardening laws.
