Abstract: In this paper we consider a hybrid elastic model consisting of a Timoshenko beam and a tip load at the free end of the beam. We show that uniform stabilization of the model which includes the rotary inertia of the tip load can be obtained when feedback boundary moment and force controls are applied at the point of contact between the beam and the tip load. However, in the presence of the load stabilization is “slower” and subject to a restriction on the boundary data at the free end of the beam. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
