Stabilization of the spatial oscillations of an elastic system model

A system of partial differential equations describing the spatial oscillations of an Euler-Bernoulli beam with a tip mass is considered. The linear system considered is actuated by two independent controls and separated into a pair of differential equations in a Hilbert space. A feedback control ensuring strong stability of the equilibrium in the sense of Lyapunov is proposed. The proof of the main result is based on the theory of strongly continuous semigroups.
