    Is there a func' for ideal x-section area in a resonant beam?

    Obviously it has to taper from the fixed end to the most mobile one. Or from the centre (node) of a symmetrical one to the ends (antinodes). Talking about longatudinal harmonic resonance only here. Ideally the static instants at full compression or tension would give a constant...
