We consider a model for the time evolution of a piezoelectric cantilever with tip mass. With appropriately shaped actuator and sensor electrodes, boundary control is applied and a passivity based feedback controller is designed to include damping into the system. Assuming that the cantilever can be modeled by the Euler‐Bernoulli beam equation, we obtain a coupled PDE‐ODE system. First we discuss its dissipativity, and its asymptotic but non ‐exponential stability. Next we derive a FEM using piecewise cubic Hermitian shape functions that is still dissipative. This is illustrated on a numerical simulation. (© 2011 Wiley‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
