On domain decomposition methods for optimal control problems

Tran, Minh-Binh

Similarity:

In this note, we introduce a new approach to study overlapping domain decomposition methods for optimal control systems governed by partial differential equations. The model considered in our paper is systems governed by wave equations. Our technique could be used for several other equations as well.

Some Applications of Optimal Control Theory of Distributed Systems

Alfredo Bermudez (2010)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

Similarity:

In this paper we present some applications of the J.-L. Lions' optimal control theory to real life problems in engineering and environmental sciences. More precisely, we deal with the following three problems: sterilization of canned foods, optimal management of waste-water treatment plants and noise control

Existence of optimal nonanticipating controls in piecewise deterministic control problems

Atle Seierstad (2013)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

Similarity:

Optimal nonanticipating controls are shown to exist in nonautonomous piecewise deterministic control problems with hard terminal restrictions. The assumptions needed are completely analogous to those needed to obtain optimal controls in deterministic control problems. The proof is based on well-known results on existence of deterministic optimal controls.

-Norm minimal control of the wave equation: on the weakness of the bang-bang principle

Martin Gugat, Gunter Leugering (2008)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

Similarity:


For optimal control problems with ordinary differential equations where the L ∞ -norm of the control is minimized, often bang-bang principles hold. For systems that are governed by a hyperbolic partial differential equation, the situation is different: even if a weak form of the bang-bang principle still holds for the wave equation, it implies no restriction on the form of the optimal control. To illustrate that for the Dirichlet boundary control of the wave equation in general not even...

Analysis of a time optimal control problem related to the management of a bioreactor

Lino J. Alvarez-Vázquez, Francisco J. Fernández, Aurea Martínez (2011)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

Similarity:

We consider a time optimal control problem arisen from the optimal management of a bioreactor devoted to the treatment of eutrophicated water. We formulate this realistic problem as a state-control constrained time optimal control problem. After analyzing the state system (a complex system of coupled partial differential equations with non-smooth coefficients for advection-diffusion-reaction with Michaelis-Menten kinetics, modelling the eutrophication processes) we demonstrate the existence...

Regularity along optimal trajectories of the value function of a Mayer problem

Carlo Sinestrari (2010)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

Similarity:

We consider an optimal control problem of Mayer type and prove that, under suitable conditions on the system, the value function is differentiable along optimal trajectories, except possibly at the endpoints. We provide counterexamples to show that this property may fail to hold if some of our conditions are violated. We then apply our regularity result to derive optimality conditions for the trajectories of the system.

Optimal control from inoculation on a continuous microalgae culture

Jorge Antonio Torres-Muñoz, Irandi Gutierrez-Carmona, Alma Rosa Dominguez-Bocanegra (2016)

Kybernetika

Similarity:

The present work is centred on the problem of biomass productivity optimization of a culture of microalgae Spirulina maxima. The mathematical tools consisted of necessary and sufficient conditions for optimal control coming from the celebrated Pontryagin's Maximum Principle (PMP) as well as the Bellman's Principle of Optimality, respectively. It is shown that the optimal dilution rate turns to be a bang-singular-bang control. It turns out that, the experimental results are in accordance...
