TL;DR: The authors study a certain class of stabilizing laws for a flexible arm either in torsion or in compression and choose a discrete-model of this arm, and then the arm is modeled by a classical partial differential equation.
Abstract: The authors study a certain class of stabilizing laws for a flexible arm either in torsion or in compression. They first choose a discrete-model of this arm, and then the arm is modeled by a classical partial differential equation. A sufficient condition for the stability of both closed-loop systems is given. This sufficient condition requires that the gain of the control law act positively on the eigenfunctions of the autonomous system. >
