Abstract

This paper is concerned with stabilization of an axially moving Kirchhoff string by boundary feedback control. We derive a nonlinear system describing transverse oscillation of the string using Hamilton’s principle and prove exponential stabilization of the system by the direct Lyapunov method. The result shows that oscillation of a nonlinear axially moving Kirchhoff string can be suppressed by a new type of boundary feedback control.
