In this paper, we study the stability problem of a star-shaped network of\nelastic strings with a local Kelvin-Voigt damping. Under the assumption that\nthe damping coefficients have some singularities near the transmission point,\nwe prove that the semigroup corresponding to the system is polynomially stable\nand the decay rates depends on the speed of the degeneracy. This result\nimproves the decay rate of the semigroup associated to the system on an earlier\nresult of Z.~Liu and Q.~Zhang in citeLZ involving the wave equation with\nlocal Kelvin-Voigt damping and non-smooth coefficient at interface.\n
