Abstract
A one-dimensional initial-boundary value problem for a thermoelastic beam that is clamped at one end and moves freely between two obstacles at the other, is studied using a method of functional analysis. The boundary conditions at the free end are represented either by classic Signorini's conditions or a normal compliance condition. The main result is that the energy associated with the system decays exponentially as time goes to infinity. Numerical examples are included.
