### Vibration Analysis of Connected Cylinders with Spring

**Problem Statement:**
Two identical circular cylinders, each with mass \( m \) and radius \( r \) according to the figure, are connected by a spring with spring stiffness \( k \). Determine the natural frequencies and illustrate the shape of the vibration modes. The moment of inertia of the cylinder is given by:
\[ I_{\text{cylinder}} = \frac{1}{2} m r^2 \]

**System Description:**

The system consists of:
- Two identical circular cylinders.
- Each cylinder has a mass \( m \) and radius \( r \).
- The cylinders are connected by a spring with a spring constant \( k \).
- The cylinders are placed on a surface with friction modeled in the system dynamics.

**Diagram Explanation:**

The diagram included in the problem consists of:
1. Two circular cylinders, labeled with radius \( r \) and mass \( m \).
2. A spring with spring constant \( k \) connects the two cylinders horizontally.
3. Below the system is a patterned ground line indicating that the cylinders rest on a horizontal surface.
4. The spring is depicted as a typical mechanical spring connecting the centers of the two cylinders.
5. Numerical value \( 36 \) over the length of the spring indicating a possible distance or labeling relevant to a specific problem context not detailed here.

**Approach to Solution:**

1. **Mathematical Modeling:**
   - We start by setting up the equations of motion for each cylinder considering both translational and rotational dynamics.
   - Let \( x_1 \) and \( x_2 \) be the displacements of cylinders 1 and 2 respectively.

2. **Translational Motion:**
   - The force exerted by the spring is \( F_{\text{spring}} = k (x_2 - x_1) \).

3. **Rotational Motion:**
   - The torque on each cylinder is \( \tau = I \alpha \), where \( \alpha \) is the angular acceleration.
   - Given \( I_{\text{cylinder}} = \frac{1}{2} m r^2 \).

4. **Equations of Motion:**
   - Using Newton's second law for each cylinder’s center of mass and rotational dynamics.

5. **Natural Frequencies:**
   - Solve the characteristic equation derived from the differential equations to find the natural frequencies.
