The transverse oscillation of a visco-elastic cantilever beam is analysed, using a three-element model. And the coefficients of solid viscosities for metals are determined by comparing the theoretical results with the experimental ones. The effects of solid viscosities on dynamic load factors are also investigated for the cases of a beam and a bar when transverse and longitudinal step impulsive loads are applied. The results show that the solid viscosity can not be neglected for the stress behaviour under dynamical loads.
