Hello,

i have built a code for determining the eigenvalues for a vibration problem and plotted them. But there is something that i couldn't understand. There is no a value for eigenvalue-1 for s specific beta interval. What happens there? are roots complex or sth else?

thanks for your help.

Yes, as you can see by inspecting the appropriate vectors:

Now that you know which values for k fail/produce non-real results, you may investigate in detail what happens if you think that that should no be that way.
