This study introduces using differential transform to solve the free vibration problems of a general elastically end restrained non-uniform Timoshenko beam. First, differential transform is briefly introduced. Second, taking differential transform of a non-uniform Timoshenko beam vibration problem, a set of difference equations is derived. Doing some simple algebraic operations on these equations, we can determine any i-th natural frequency, the closed form series solution of any i-th normalized mode shape. Finally, three examples are given to illustrate the accuracy and efficiency of the present method.
