Controllable systems of partial differential equations

František Tumajer (1986)

Aplikace matematiky

In the paper definitions of various kinds of stability and boundedness of solutions of linear controllable systems of partial differential equations are introduced and their interconnections are derived. By means of Ljapunov's functions theorems are proved which give necessary and sufficient conditions for particular kinds of stability and boundedness of the solutions.

Controllablity of a quantum particle in a 1D variable domain

Karine Beauchard (2010)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

We consider a quantum particle in a 1D infinite square potential well with variable length. It is a nonlinear control system in which the state is the wave function ϕ of the particle and the control is the length l(t) of the potential well. We prove the following controllability result : given φ 0 close enough to an eigenstate corresponding to the length l = 1 and φ f close enough to another eigenstate corresponding to the length l=1, there exists a continuous function l : [ 0 , T ] + * with T > 0, such that l(0)...

Controller design for bush-type 1-d wave networks∗

Yaxuan Zhang, Genqi Xu (2012)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

In this paper, we introduce a new method for feedback controller design for the complex distributed parameter networks governed by wave equations, which ensures the stability of the closed loop system. This method is based on the uniqueness theory of ordinary differential equations and cutting-edge approach in the graph theory, but it is not a simple extension. As a realization of this idea, we investigate a bush-type wave network. The well-posedness of the closed loop system is obtained via Lax-Milgram’s...

Control-theoretic properties of structural acoustic models with thermal effects, II. Trace regularity results

Francesca Bucci (2008)

Applicationes Mathematicae

We consider a structural acoustic problem with the flexible wall modeled by a thermoelastic plate, subject to Dirichlet boundary control in the thermal component. We establish sharp regularity results for the traces of the thermal variable on the boundary in case the system is supplemented with clamped mechanical boundary conditions. These regularity estimates are most crucial for validity of the optimal control theory developed by Acquistapace et al. [Adv. Differential Equations, 2005], which ensures...

Convective Instability of Reaction Fronts in Porous Media

K. Allali, A. Ducrot, A. Taik, V. Volpert (2010)

Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena

We study the influence of natural convection on stability of reaction fronts in porous media. The model consists of the heat equation, of the equation for the depth of conversion and of the equations of motion under the Darcy law. Linear stability analysis of the problem is fulfilled, the stability boundary is found. Direct numerical simulations are performed and compared with the linear stability analysis.

Convergence analysis for an exponentially fitted Finite Volume Method

Reiner Vanselow (2010)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

The paper is devoted to the convergence analysis of a well-known cell-centered Finite Volume Method (FVM) for a convection-diffusion problem in 2 . This FVM is based on Voronoi boxes and exponential fitting. To prove the convergence of the FVM, we use a new nonconforming Petrov-Galerkin Finite Element Method (FEM) for which the system of linear equations coincides completely with that of the FVM. Thus, by proving convergence properties of the FEM we obtain similar ones for the FVM. For the error...

Convergence and asymptotic stabilization for some damped hyperbolic equations with non-isolated equilibria

Felipe Alvarez, Hedy Attouch (2001)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

It is established convergence to a particular equilibrium for weak solutions of abstract linear equations of the second order in time associated with monotone operators with nontrivial kernel. Concerning nonlinear hyperbolic equations with monotone and conservative potentials, it is proved a general asymptotic convergence result in terms of weak and strong topologies of appropriate Hilbert spaces. It is also considered the stabilization of a particular equilibrium via the introduction of an asymptotically...
