A nonlinear plate control without linearization

Kenan Yildirim, Ismail Kucuk (2017)

Open Mathematics

In this paper, an optimal vibration control problem for a nonlinear plate is considered. In order to obtain the optimal control function, wellposedness and controllability of the nonlinear system is investigated. The performance index functional of the system, to be minimized by minimum level of control, is chosen as the sum of the quadratic 10 functional of the displacement. The velocity of the plate and quadratic functional of the control function is added to the performance index functional as...

A nonlocal singular perturbation problem with periodic well potential

Matthias Kurzke (2006)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

For a one-dimensional nonlocal nonconvex singular perturbation problem with a noncoercive periodic well potential, we prove a Γ -convergence theorem and show compactness up to translation in all L p and the optimal Orlicz space for sequences of bounded energy. This generalizes work of Alberti, Bouchitté and Seppecher (1994) for the coercive two-well case. The theorem has applications to a certain thin-film limit of the micromagnetic energy.

A note on a class of equilibrium problems with equilibrium constraints

Jiří V. Outrata (2004)

Kybernetika

The paper concerns a two-level hierarchical game, where the players on each level behave noncooperatively. In this way one can model eg an oligopolistic market with several large and several small firms. We derive two types of necessary conditions for a solution of this game and discuss briefly the possibilities of its computation.

A Note on Coercivity of Lower Semicontinuous Functions and Nonsmooth Critical Point Theory

Corvellec, J. (1996)

Serdica Mathematical Journal

The first motivation for this note is to obtain a general version of the following result: let E be a Banach space and f : E → R be a differentiable function, bounded below and satisfying the Palais-Smale condition; then, f is coercive, i.e., f(x) goes to infinity as ||x|| goes to infinity. In recent years, many variants and extensions of this result appeared, see [3], [5], [6], [9], [14], [18], [19] and the references therein. A general result of this type was given in [3, Theorem 5.1] for a lower...

A note on equality of functional envelopes

Martin Kružík (2003)

Mathematica Bohemica

We characterize generalized extreme points of compact convex sets. In particular, we show that if the polyconvex hull is convex in m × n , min ( m , n ) 2 , then it is constructed from polyconvex extreme points via sequential lamination. Further, we give theorems ensuring equality of the quasiconvex (polyconvex) and the rank-1 convex envelopes of a lower semicontinuous function without explicit convexity assumptions on the quasiconvex (polyconvex) envelope.

A note on Minty type vector variational inequalities

Giovanni P. Crespi, Ivan Ginchev, Matteo Rocca (2005)

RAIRO - Operations Research - Recherche Opérationnelle

The existence of solutions to a scalar Minty variational inequality of differential type is usually related to monotonicity property of the primitive function. On the other hand, solutions of the variational inequality are global minimizers for the primitive function. The present paper generalizes these results to vector variational inequalities putting the Increasing Along Rays (IAR) property into the center of the discussion. To achieve that infinite elements in the image space Y are introduced....
