The appropriate energy \(E(t)\) of the stated problem is defined first. In case of constant coefficients , using the multiplier technique in the \(n\)-dimensional Euclidian space, a decay of \(E(t)\) has been proved by \textit{M. Nakao} [Math. Z. 238, No.~4, 781--797 (2001; Zbl 1002.35079)]. The aim here is to get a similar estimation in case of variable coefficients. Under a special condition regarding the Riemann metric, one proves the existence of a unique solution to the stated problem and one obtains an estimation of Nakao type. The special condition has been introduced by \textit{P. F. Yao} [SIAM J. Control Optim. 37, No.~5, 1568--1599 (1999; Zbl 0951.35069)].
