In this paper adaptive stabilization of infinite-dimensional undamped semilinear second-order systems is considered in the case of the input and output operators being collocated. The adaptive stabilizer is constructed by the concept of high-gain output feedback. An energy-like function and a multiplier function are introduced and adaptive stabilization of the semilinear second-order systems is analysed. The theories are applied to a nonlinear string system and the sine-Gordon system.
Keywords: adaptive stabilization; semilinear second-order dynamical systems; energy-like functions; multiplier functions.
