This book presents isospectral approach for several important mechanical vibrating systems. Discrete and continuous isospectral systems are discussed using a simple multi-degree of freedom spring-mass system, axially loaded Euler-Bernoulli beams, isospectral rotating beams and their non-rotating analogs including Rayleigh and Timoshenko beams.
