Creep of a symmetrically loaded clamped circular plate sealing an incompressible fluid is analyzed using a new constitutive relation for inelastic deformation behavior of metals proposed by Hart and Li. The problems ae solved numerically for several cases at different temperatures and loading conditions. The salient features of the theory are critically examined. It is concluded that the results obtained are qualitatively similar to the results of creep reported in the literature.
