Abstract: We study the stabilization of solutions of the Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation in a bounded interval under the effect of a localized damping mechanism. Using multiplier techniques we deduce the exponential decay in time of the solutions of the underlying linear equation. A locally uniform stabilization result of the solutions of the nonlinear KdV model is also proved. The proof combines compactness arguments, the smoothing effect of the KdV equation on the line and unique continuation results.
