Abstract
This paper is focused on deriving a common solution to the strain energy release rate for delamination cracks in multilayered inhomogeneous beams under nonlinear creep. The layers of the beams exhibit material inhomogeneity in the thickness direction. The solution is obtained for the nonlinear stress-strain-time relation. The J -integral approach is applied to verify the solution. The variation of the strain energy release rate with time as a result of the nonlinear creep behaviour is analyzed.
