It is shown that the Mathieu eigenvalues can be straightforwardly utilized to study the instability regions of an axially loaded simply supported shaft, the shaft being modeled as a continuous rotating beam. When a harmonic axial load is taken into account, the equation of motion of the system, here written according to the Lagrangian formulation of continuous systems, proves to be the Mathieu equation. It follows that the conditions for the stable or unstable motion of the shaft can be graphically investigated once the operation line corresponding to an actual rotating shaft is drawn in the Mathieu map.
