Abstract
The equation of free transverse vibration of beams with two sections of partially distributed mass is derived and its exact solution has been obtained. Experimental data for a cantilever beam are given to verify the computational results. Using a cantilever beam as an example, some interesting features of changes of natural frequencies with mass length and position are described. The method is finally generalized for the case of beams with multiple spans of distributed mass.
