Abstract

This article concerns the numerical study of the behaviour of a flexible beam of Euler-Bernoulli to which one adds to its internal composition a damping of the viscous type. This damping naturally exerts a dissipative force (or viscous damping force) on the beam and opposes any deformation, in proportion to the rate of deformation. We are therefore interested in the impact of the damper on the exponential stability of the beam. We develop here a numerical method which faithfully reproduces the theoretical results obtained by several authors. Simulations are provided to illustrate our results.
