Abstract The creep of a skin layer under a distributed surface pressure was solved by an analytical method using Hankel transform and Laplace transform. The surface stress boundary conditions lead to a Volterra integral equation of the first kind, which was then solved by a numerical method. The IMSL subroutines DINLAP and DGQRUL were employed to numerically obtain the Hankel-Laplace inversion. The calculated displacements at two distinctive moments were compared respectively with those obtained by an elastic solution for either incompressible or compressible solid. The transient creep responses of the skin layer were also presented.
