For the rod with surrounded by some cylinder pipe, let's say there are downward applied force on the top and bottom surface is fixed. Gravity effect is considered as well. When the rod buckles, it touches to the surface of the pipe.

Static equilibrium will be: Applied downward force + weight - transmitted bottom surface - friction force.

This equation doesn't satisfy. for all time. Is there some force that I am missing?
