A family of time-varying hyperbolic systems of balance laws is considered. The partial differential equations of this family can be stabilized by selecting suitable boundary conditions. For the stabilized systems, the classical technique of construction of Lyapunov functions provides with a function which is a weak Lyapunov function in some cases, but is not in others. We transform this function through a strictification approach which gives a time-varying strict Lyapunov function which allows
