Abstract

The aim through this work is to suppress the transverse vibrations of an axially moving viscoelastic strip. A controller mechanism (dynamic actuator) is attached at the right boundary to control the undesirable vibrations. The moving strip is modeled as a moving beam pulled at a constant speed through 2 eyelets. The left eyelet is fixed in the sense that there is no transverse displacement (see Figure 1). The mathematical model of this system consists of an integro-partial differential equation describing the dynamic of the strip and an integro-differential equation describing the dynamic of the actuator. The multiplier method is used to design a boundary control law ensuring an exponential stabilization result.
