Abstract

Boundary control for a class of partial integro-differential systems with space and time dependent coefficients is considered. A control law is derived via the partial differential equation (PDE) backstepping. The existence of kernel equations is proved. Exponential stability of the closed-loop system is achieved. Simulation results are presented through figures.
