Study of the nodal feedback stabilization of a string-beams network

International audienceWe consider a stabilization problem for a string-beams network. We prove an exponential decay result. The method used is based on a frequency domain method and combine a contradiction argument with the multiplier technique to carry out a special analysis for the resolvent. Moreover, we give a numerical illustration based on the methodology introduced in Ammari and Tucsnak (ESAIM Control Optim. Calc. Var. 6, 361–386, 2001) where the exponential stability for the closed loop problem is reduced to an observability estimate for the corresponding uncontrolled system combined to a boundedness property of the transfer function of the associated open loop syste
