An exact approach for free longitudinal vibrations of one-step non-uniform rods with classical and non-classical boundary conditions is presented. In this paper, the expression for describing the distribution of mass is arbitrary, and the distribution of longitudinal sti!ness is expressed as a funct

β¦ Synopsis
The objective of this paper is to present exact analytical solutions for the longitudinal vibration of rods with non-uniform cross-section. Using appropriate transformations, the equation of motion of axial vibration of a rod with varying cross-section is reduced to analytically solvable standard differential equations whose form depends upon the specific area variation. Solutions are obtained for a rod with a polynomial area variation and for a sinusoidal rod. The solutions are obtained in terms of special functions such as Bessel and Neumann as well as trignometric functions. Simple formulas to predict the natural frequencies of non-uniform rods with various end conditions are presented. The natural frequencies of non-uniform rods for these end conditions are calculated, and their dependence on taper is discussed. The governing equation for the problem is the same as that of wave propagation through ducts with non-uniform cross-sections. Therefore solutions presented here can be used to investigate such problems.
