It is a well-known fact that buckling values for columns under dynamical loads are different from those under static loads. Meier, Gerard and Davidson have already investigated the dynamics of the buckling of elastic columns theoretically and experimentally, and Hoff discussed analytical methods in detail. However, solid viscosities are neglected in all these researches. Previously, the author obtained the relationships between dynamic load factors and solid viscosities, and it was found that their effects on dynamic load factors cannot be neglected. It will be interesting to investigate the relationships between solid viscosities and dynamic buckling values.
