This paper deals with the mathematical study of the small motions of a system formed by a cylindrical liquid column bounded by two parallel circular rings and an internal cylindrical column constituted by a barotropic gas under zero gravity. From the equations of motion, the authors deduce a variational equation. Then, the study of the small oscillations depends on the coerciveness of a hermitian form that appears in this equation. It is proved that this last problem is reduced to an auxiliary eigenvalues problem. The discussion shows that, under a simple geometric condition, the problem is a classical vibration problem.

This brief study examines the relationship between the natural frequency of small oscillations and the length of vertical cantilever struts in a gravitational field. The analysis uses a Rayleigh approach and includes post-buckled equilibrium states and emphasizes the influence of initial imperfections.
