This nonlinear feedback, which insures the exponential decay of the beam vibrations, extends the which insures the exponential decay of the beam vibrations, extends the linear case studied by Laousy et al. to a more general class of controls. This new class of controls is in particular of the interest to be robust

A New Approach to the Stabilization of the Wave Equation with Boundary Damping Control

This paper deals with boundary feedback stabilization of a system, which consists of a wave equation in a bounded domain of , with Neumann boundary conditions. To stabilize the system, we propose a boundary feedback law involving only a damping term. Then using a new energy function, we show that the solutions of the system asymptotically converge to a stationary position, which depends on the initial data. Similar results were announced without proof in (Chentouf and Boudellioua, 2004)

Boundary stabilization of the Korteweg-de Vries-Burgers equation with an infinite memory-type control and applications: a qualitative and numerical analysis

This article is intended to present a qualitative and numerical analysis of well-posedness and boundary stabilization problems of the well-known Korteweg-de Vries-Burgers equation. Assuming that the boundary control is of memory type, the history approach is adopted in order to deal with the memory term. Under sufficient conditions on the physical parameters of the system and the memory kernel of the control, the system is shown to be well-posed by combining the semigroups approach of linear operators and the fixed point theory. Then, energy decay estimates are provided by applying the multiplier method. An application to the Kuramoto-Sivashinsky equation will be also given. Moreover, we present a numerical analysis based on a finite differences method and provide numerical examples illustrating our theoretical results

Asymptotic behavior of Kawahara equation with memory effect

In this work, we are interested in a detailed qualitative analysis of the Kawahara equation, a model that has numerous physical motivations such as magneto-acoustic waves in a cold plasma and gravity waves on the surface of a heavy liquid. First, we design a feedback law, which combines a damping control and a finite memory term. Then, it is shown that the energy associated with this system exponentially decays.Comment: 20 pages.

Dynamic boundary controls of a rotating body-beam system with time-varying angular velocity

This paper deals with feedback stabilization of a flexible beam clamped at a rigid body and free at the other end. We assume that there is no damping and the rigid body rotates with a nonconstant angular velocity. To stabilize this system, we propose a feedback law which consists of a control torque applied on the rigid body and either a dynamic boundary control moment or a dynamic boundary control force or both of them applied at the free end of the beam. Then it is shown that the closed loop system is well posed and exponentially stable provided that the actuators, which generate the boundary controls, satisfy some classical assumptions and the angular velocity is smaller than a critical one
