Boundary stabilization of a microbeam model

In this paper, we study the boundary stabilization of the deflection of a clamped-free microbeam, which is modeled by a sixth-order hyperbolic equation. We design a boundary feedback control, simpler than the one designed in Vatankhah et al,² that forces the energy associated to the deflection to decay exponentially to zero as the time goes to infinity. The rate in which the energy exponentially decays is explicitly given.
