Question 1 I have a plot which consists of six curves, and I wanted to differentiate these line without using any color. I the only option that I left with is to use different line style. After looking at the documentation I only come up with these three, but I have six curves? how to do this?

Question 2 Out of these six plots, bottom three curves I have to name as mode shapes, the upper three curves as non-dimensional frequency. And there is a no horizontal line crossing at y=0; how to fix this?

You can use PlotTheme -> "Monochrome" as follows:

{if1, if2, if3} = Interpolation /@ {data1, data2, data3};  

Quiet@Plot[{ m3, m4, m5, if1[x2], if2[x2], if3[x2]}, {x2, 0, L}, 
   PlotTheme -> "Monochrome", AxesStyle -> Black, PlotRange -> All, 
   PlotLegends -> LineLegend[{"m3", "m4", "m5", "data1", "data2", "data3"}], 
   ImageSize -> Large, Frame -> True, Axes -> False, 
   GridLines -> {None, {0, 5}}, 
   GridLinesStyle -> Directive[Gray, Dashing[{}]], 
   FrameLabel -> {{StringPadLeft["Non-dimensional β", 60], 
      StringPadRight[ "Mode shapes", 70]}, {"Beam Length", None}}, 
   Epilog -> ListPlot[{data1, data2, data3}, MaxPlotPoints -> 30, 
      PlotStyle -> Black, PlotTheme -> {"OpenMarkers"}][[1]]]

enter image description here

Use Epilog -> (First /@ {p4, p5, p6, p7, p8, p9}) to get

    $\begingroup$ @acoustics, use Epilog -> (First /@ {p4, p5, p6, p7, p8, p9}) to add your markers, and use GridLines -> {None, {0}} to remove the horizontal line at 5. $\endgroup$
