Abstract: We performe an exponential decay analysis for a Timoshenko-type system under the thermal effect by constructing the Lyapunov functional. More precisely, this thermal effect is acting as a mechanism for dissipating energy generated by the bending of the beam, acting only on the vertical displacement equation, different from other works already existing in the literature. Furthermore, we show the good placement of the problem using semigroup theory.
