            Abstract : 
We develop boundary controllers for a flexible cable with actuator dynamics at the boundary. Specifically, we develop an exact model knowledge controller which exponentially stabilizes the position of the cable and an adaptive controller which asymptotically stabilizes the position of the cable while compensating for parametric uncertainty. The performance of the controllers is illustrated via experimental results
