The creep-buckling phenomenon of circular cylindrical shells subjected to axial compression is studied in the presence of initial imperfections when the creep strain rate is proportional to a power of the stress with the exponent greater than unity. A closed-form solution is obtained for the critical time; that is, for the finite time at which the analysis predicts the development of indefinitely large displacements.
