Abstract
The problem of calculating harmonic oscillations of a linear damped system with inhomogeneous damping is considered. Along with the solution available in literature, which 
 requires the inversion of the matrix that determines the eigenvalues of the undamped system, the authors propose a new solution that does not require the inversion of the above mentioned matrix, but requires the inversion of the system damping matrix. The cases of hysteretic, viscous and mixed damping are considered. It is shown that the known solution gives an error near the resonance. At the resonance point, the result is not defined at all, and near the resonance it may be incorrect. An example of building the amplitude-frequency characteristic of a system with two mass tuned dynamic dampers and three peaks in the amplitude-frequency characteristic is given. The proposed formulas for calculating displacements are convenient for constructing the amplitude-frequency characteristics of damped systems with viscous, hysteretic and mixed types of damping.
