Abstract
In this paper, we consider a laminated Timoshenko beam with boundary conditions of a memory type. This structure is given by two identical uniform layers, one on top of the other, taking into account that an adhesive of small thickness bonds the two surfaces and produces an interfacial slip. Under the assumptions of wider classes of kernel functions, we establish an optimal explicit energy decay result. The stability result is more general than previous works and hence improves earlier results in the literature.
