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.

Exact Boundary Controllability of a Hybrid System of elasticity by the HUM Method

Bopeng Rao (2010)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

Similarity:

We consider the exact controllability of a hybrid system consisting of an elastic beam, clamped at one end and attached at the other end to a rigid antenna. Such a system is governed by one partial differential equation and two ordinary differential equations. Using the HUM method, we prove that the hybrid system is exactly controllable in an arbitrarily short time in the usual energy space.
