Abstract: In this paper we test the robustness of a nonlinear boundary feedback control for a flexible beam with respect to perturbation. We show that additional dynamics of perturbation at one of the ends of the beam, as long as they are strictly passive, will not destabilize the controlled beam.

Keywords: Flexible beam, robustness, stability, Lyapunov method
