The one-dimensional wave equation with damping of indefinite sign in a bounded interval with Dirichlet boundary conditions is considered. It is proved that solutions decay uniformly exponentially to zero provided the damping potential is in the BV-class, has positive average, is small enough and sat

## Abstract In this paper we are concerned with a nonlinear viscoelastic equation with nonlinear damping. The general uniform decay of the energy is obtained. Copyright ยฉ 2008 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
The paper considers a particular type of closed-loop for the wave equation in one space dimension with damping acting at an arbitrary internal point, for which the uniform stabilization with exponential decay rate is shown. Applications to chains of coupled strings are also discussed.
## Abstract Dissipative perturbations of hyperbolic equations such as __u__~__tt__~ + __Bu__~__t__~ + __A__^2^__u__ = 0 with positive operators __A__, __B__ are considered. The rates of decay and partition of energy theorems are established for solutions of these equations.
