General energy decay estimates of Timoshenko systems with frictional versus viscoelastic damping

Abstract In this paper we consider the following Timoshenko system: with Dirichlet boundary conditions and initial data where a , b , g and h are specific functions and ρ 1 , ρ 2 , k 1 , k 2 and L are given positive constants. We establish a general stability estimate using the multiplier method and... View More
