Control of a clamped-free beam by a piezoelectric actuator

Emmanuelle Crépeau, Christophe Prieur (2006)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

Similarity:

We consider a controllability problem for a beam, clamped at one boundary and free at the other boundary, with an attached piezoelectric actuator. By Hilbert Uniqueness Method (HUM) and new results on diophantine approximations, we prove that the space of exactly initial controllable data depends on the location of the actuator. We also illustrate these results with numerical simulations.

Exact controllability of shells in minimal time

Similarity:

We prove an exact controllability result for thin cups using the Fourier method and recent improvements of Ingham type theorems, given in a previous paper [2].

Optimal blowup rates for the minimal energy null control of the strongly damped abstract wave equation

George Avalos, Irena Lasiecka (2003)

Annali della Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa - Classe di Scienze

Similarity:

The null controllability problem for a structurally damped abstract wave equation –often referred to in the literature as a structurally damped equation– is considered with a view towards obtaining optimal rates of blowup for the associated minimal energy function ℰ min ( T ) , as terminal time T ↓ 0 . Key use is made of the underlying analyticity of the semigroup generated by the elastic operator 𝒜 , as well as of the explicit characterization of its domain of definition. We ultimately find that the...
