The general method of investigation for longitudinal oscillations of rods of a piecewise-constant section is offered. In the basis of the solving scheme is a concept of quasi-derivatives, a modern theory of systems of linear differential equations, the classical Fourier method and a reduction method. The advantage of this method is a possibility to examine a problem on each breakdown segment and then to combine obtained solutions on the basis of matrix calculation. Such an approach allows the use of software tools for solving the problem.
