These equations are  There is no need to break the solution into small increments if the system is linear. The above equation reduces to the following when there is only one increment Section II – Static Analysis Module 5 - Natural Frequency Analysis Page 3

Section II – Static Analysis Module 5 - Natural Frequency Analysis Page 6  The determinant will yield a polynomial with  as the unknown parameter.  The polynomial will be the same order as the number of equations.
