Minimizing movements for dislocation dynamics with a mean curvature term

Nicolas ForcadelAurélien Monteillet — 2009

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

We prove existence of minimizing movements for the dislocation dynamics evolution law of a propagating front, in which the normal velocity of the front is the sum of a non-local term and a mean curvature term. We prove that any such minimizing movement is a weak solution of this evolution law, in a sense related to viscosity solutions of the corresponding level-set equation. We also prove the consistency of this approach, by showing that any minimizing movement coincides with the smooth evolution...

Deterministic state-constrained optimal control problems without controllability assumptions

Olivier BokanowskiNicolas ForcadelHasnaa Zidani — 2011

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

In the present paper, we consider nonlinear optimal control problems with constraints on the state of the system. We are interested in the characterization of the value function without any controllability assumption. In the unconstrained case, it is possible to derive a characterization of the value function by means of a Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman (HJB) equation. This equation expresses the behavior of the value function along the trajectories arriving or starting from any position . In the constrained...
