The model is reduced to a fourth-order boundary value problem on a graph with rigid joint conditions for the rods. A method is proposed for reducing the original problem to a multipoint boundary value problem on a selected route, allowing the system to be interpreted as an elastically supported rod. A justification for this method is provided, and a condition for the oscillatory nature of the spectrum is formulated.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="ru"><p>Исследуются осцилляционные свойства спектра задачи о собственных колебаниях стержневой системы в форме креста. Модель сводится к краевой задаче четвертого порядка на графе с условиями жесткой спайки стержней. Предложен метод редукции исходной задачи к многоточечной краевой задаче на выделенном маршруте, что позволяет интерпретировать систему как упруго подпертый стержень. Дается обоснование данного метода и формулируется условие осцилляционности спектра.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>graph equation</kwd><kwd>Green’s function</kwd><kwd>spectrum oscillation</kwd><kwd>rod equation</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>уравнение на графе</kwd><kwd>функция Грина</kwd><kwd>осцилляционность спектра</kwd><kwd>уравнение стержня</kwd></kwd-group><funding-group><award-group><funding-source><institution-wrap><institution xml:lang="ru">Работа выполнена при финансовой поддержке Министерства науки и высшего образования Российской Федерации, соглашение № 075-02-2026-1324</institution></institution-wrap><institution-wrap><institution xml:lang="en">The work was carried out with the financial support of the Ministry of Science and Higher Education of the Russian Federation, agreement No. 075-02-2026-1324</institution></institution-wrap></funding-source></award-group></funding-group></article-meta><fn-group/></front><body></body><back><ref-list><ref id="B1"><label>1.</label><mixed-citation>Бурлуцкая М.Ш., Зверева М.Б., Каменский М.И.
