Exponential decay for a von Kármán equations of memory type with acoustic boundary conditions

In this paper, we consider the dynamical von Kármán equations of memory type with acoustic boundary conditions. We show an exponential decay result of solutions under weaker assumption than the ones frequently used in the literature. In particular, the kernel we are considering is not necessarily exponentially decaying to zero as was assumed before. Copyright © 2014 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
