Abstract
Many papers which treat the dynamic instability of shell structures under the step load have been published. But there are few papers which deal with the dynamic buckling under the load with periodic characteristics, especially considering damping. The dynamic buckling behaviour under the periodic excitation is different from that of the step excitation.

In this paper, the damping influence to the dynamic snap- buckling phenomenon for simple shell-like shallow models is investigated under the up-and-down excitation, that is, the step, the sinusoidal and the seismic excitations, and compared with the static critical load.

The results show that as considering the damping, dynamic buckling loads become higher than the case of no damping, and the damping effect in the case of the indirect snapping is bigger than the direct snapping, excepting the vicinity of main resonance region.
