This is a doctoral thesis, submitted to the TH Darmstadt, in which the author deals with a rod of Kelvin-Voigt-materials, such as materials with memory. He presents the existence theorem of the solution and discusses the controllability of the rod by its boundary data. For Kelvin-Voigt-materials, we have the following equations, and the initial and boundary conditions: \[ u_{tt}=\tau_x+ f,\quad \tau= \sigma(u_x)+u_{xt}, \] \[ u |_{t=0}=u_0,\;u_t|_{t=0}=u_1,\;u|_{x=0}=g_1,\;u|_{x=1}=g_2, \] \(u,\tau,f\) being the displacement, stress and the force acting on the rod. The \(\sigma()\) is a nonlinear function. After preliminary statements on the linear problem, the author goes on to the above-mentioned one to sustain the existence theorem with a proof, and he considers controllability of the rod in three cases: exact, optimal and approximate. In the Appendix, some mathematical theorems used in this thesis are presented.
