Abstract
The chapter introduces the concept of generalized systems. A brief introduction of the Lagrangian approach applied to the mechanical systems is provided. Furthermore, some numerical examples are reported (system with distributed mass and elasticity, system with distributed elasticity and lumped mass, and general systems).
