Summary: We consider the stabilization of thermoelastic plates with variable coefficients and dynamical boundary control under some suitable feedbacks. A rational energy decay rate for strong solutions is established by Riemannian geometry method. Finally, the uniform energy decay rate for a simplified system is obtained.
