Abstract:

In this talk, we concern about the stabilization for Saint-Venant equations with arbitrary friction and space-varying slope under boundary feedback controls. The main tool we used is the Lyapunov approach which is a powerful method for the stabilization of PDEs with controls. I will start from the introduction of some literatures on the stabilization issue of general hyperbolic systems with dissipative boundary conditions. Then we will focus on the stabilization of Saint-Venant equations.
