Abstract It can be shown that the vibration of an extensible bar, carrying no transverse load and having the ends fixed at the supports, causes an axial tensile force with a period equal to the half-period of the vibration of the bar. This force modifies the process of the vibration to a nonlinear one and produces an increase of the frequency of vibration according to the increase of the amplitude.
