In the present paper, creep analysis of spherical shell has been done under the influence of internal and external pressure. Creep stresses in a spherical shell are derived by using principal strain measure and Seth’s transition theory. A novel feature of the transition theory is its ability to give a uniform treatment of plastic and creep deformation without making ad hoc assumptions like yield criterion or creep laws. The expressions obtained are valid for compressible as well as incompressible materials.
