Abstract
In this paper, we study a Timoshenko system with local Kelvin–Voigt damping, which models the dynamics of a beam. We prove that the energy of the system decays exponentially or polynomially and the decay rate depends on properties of material coefficient function. The method is based on the frequency analysis and inequalities of Poincaré’s and Hardy’s type.
