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

Anna Doubova, A. Osses, J.-P. Puel (2010)

Similarity:

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...

Simultaneous controllability in sharp time for two elastic strings

Sergei Avdonin, Marius Tucsnak (2010)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

Similarity:

We study the simultaneously reachable subspace for two strings controlled from a common endpoint. We give necessary and sufficient conditions for simultaneous spectral and approximate controllability. Moreover we prove the lack of simultaneous exact controllability and we study the space of simultaneously reachable states as a function of the position of the joint. For each type of controllability result we give the sharp controllability time.
