This article deals with, in the framework of absolute stability, boundary stabilization for a nonlinear axially moving beam under boundary velocity feedback controls. The nonlinear boundary control that satisfies a slope-sector condition covering many types of nonlinear control schemes is a negative feedback of the transverse velocity at the right eyelet of the moving beam. Under the nonlinear control scheme, the well-posedness of the nonlinear partial differential equation, which depends continuously on the initial value is investigated by means of the Faedo–Galerkin approximation and priori estimates. By exploiting the integral-type multiplier method, the exponential stability of the closed-loop system is established, where a novel energy like function is constructed. The numerical simulation examples using the finite element method are presented to illustrate the effectiveness of the established criterion of the controller.
