Abstract :
An explicit expression is derived for the eigenfrequencies of a Euler-Bernoulli beam with damping modeled by an integro-PDE proposed by D.L. Russell. It is shown that the asymptotic distribution of the eigenspectrum is similar to that of a beam with a uniform damping constant acting opposite to the rate of change of the bending moment
