Exact controllability in fluid – solid structure: The Helmholtz model

Jean-Pierre Raymond, Muthusamy Vanninathan (2010)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

A model representing the vibrations of a fluid-solid coupled structure is considered. Following Hilbert Uniqueness Method (HUM) introduced by Lions, we establish exact controllability results for this model with an internal control in the fluid part and there is no control in the solid part. Novel features which arise because of the coupling are pointed out. It is a source of difficulty in the proof of observability inequalities, definition of weak solutions and the proof of controllability...

Exact controllability of a pluridimensional coupled problem.

Serge Nicaise (1992)

Revista Matemática de la Universidad Complutense de Madrid

We set a coupled boundary value problem between two domains of different dimension. The first one is the unit cube of Rn, n C [2,3], with a crack and the second one is the crack. this problem comes from Ciarlet et al. (1989), that obtained an analogous coupled problem. We show that the solution has singularities due to the crack. As in Grisvard (1989), we adapt the Hilbert uniqueness method of J.-L. Lions (1968,1988) in order to obtain the exact controllability of the associated wave equation with...

Exact controllability of the 1-d wave equation from a moving interior point

Carlos Castro (2013)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

We consider the linear wave equation with Dirichlet boundary conditions in a bounded interval, and with a control acting on a moving point. We give sufficient conditions on the trajectory of the control in order to have the exact controllability property.

Exact controllability of the wave equation with mixed boundary condition and time-dependent coefficients

M. M. Cavalcanti (1999)

Archivum Mathematicum

In this paper we study the boundary exact controllability for the equation t α ( t ) y t - j = 1 n x j β ( t ) a ( x ) y x j = 0 in Ω × ( 0 , T ) , when the control action is of Dirichlet-Neumann form and Ω is a bounded domain in R n . The result is obtained by applying the HUM (Hilbert Uniqueness Method) due to J. L. Lions.

Exact controllability to the trajectories of the heat equation with Fourier boundary conditions: the semilinear case

Enrique Fernández-Cara, Manuel González-Burgos, Sergio Guerrero, Jean-Pierre Puel (2006)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

This paper is concerned with the global exact controllability of the semilinear heat equation (with nonlinear terms involving the state and the gradient) completed with boundary conditions of the form y n + f ( y ) = 0 . We consider distributed controls, with support in a small set. The null controllability of similar linear systems has been analyzed in a previous first part of this work. In this second part we show that, when the nonlinear terms are locally Lipschitz-continuous and slightly superlinear, one...

Exact controllability to trajectories for semilinear heat equations with discontinuous diffusion coefficients

Anna Doubova, A. Osses, J.-P. Puel (2002)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

The results of this paper concern exact controllability to the trajectories for a coupled system of semilinear heat equations. We have transmission conditions on the interface and Dirichlet boundary conditions at the external part of the boundary so that the system can be viewed as a single equation with discontinuous coefficients in the principal part. Exact controllability to the trajectories is proved when we consider distributed controls supported in the part of the domain where the diffusion...
