I was wondering the critical load vary as a result of forced vibration?
Intuitionally, I thought the critical load reduced.
But how to show it analytically, Any idea?

Are you referring to the critical load for buckling? Why would the critical load be reduced? Once you have a mechanism in mind, you can start analyzing it.
