Approximate controllability of linear parabolic equations in perforated domains

Patrizia Donato, Aïssam Nabil (2001)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

Similarity:

In this paper we consider an approximate controllability problem for linear parabolic equations with rapidly oscillating coefficients in a periodically perforated domain. The holes are ε -periodic and of size ε . We show that, as ε 0 , the approximate control and the corresponding solution converge respectively to the approximate control and to the solution of the homogenized problem. In the limit problem, the approximation of the final state is alterated by a constant which depends on the...

Global non-negative controllability of the semilinear parabolic equation governed by bilinear control

Alexander Y. Khapalov (2002)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

Similarity:

We study the global approximate controllability of the one dimensional semilinear convection-diffusion-reaction equation governed in a bounded domain via the coefficient (bilinear control) in the additive reaction term. Clearly, even in the linear case, due to the maximum principle, such system is not globally or locally controllable in any reasonable linear space. It is also well known that for the superlinear terms admitting a power growth at infinity the global approximate controllability...

Some new results related to the null controllability of the 1 - d heat equation

Antonio López, Enrique Zuazua (1997-1998)

Séminaire Équations aux dérivées partielles

Similarity:

We address three null controllability problems related to the 1 - d heat equation. First we show that the 1 - d heat equation with a rapidly oscillating density is uniformly null controllable as the period of the density tends to zero. We also prove that the same result holds for the finite-difference semi-discretization in space of the constant coefficient heat equation as the step size tends to zero. Finally, we prove that the null controllability of the constant coefficient heat equation...

Control problems for convection-diffusion equations with control localized on manifolds

Phuong Anh Nguyen, Jean-Pierre Raymond (2001)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

Similarity:

We consider optimal control problems for convection-diffusion equations with a pointwise control or a control localized on a smooth manifold. We prove optimality conditions for the control variable and for the position of the control. We do not suppose that the coefficient of the convection term is regular or bounded, we only suppose that it has the regularity of strong solutions of the Navier–Stokes equations. We consider functionals with an observation on the gradient of the state....

A singular perturbation problem in exact controllability of the Maxwell system

John E. Lagnese (2001)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

Similarity:

This paper studies the exact controllability of the Maxwell system in a bounded domain, controlled by a current flowing tangentially in the boundary of the region, as well as the exact controllability the same problem but perturbed by a dissipative term multiplied by a small parameter in the boundary condition. This boundary perturbation improves the regularity of the problem and is therefore a singular perturbation of the original problem. The purpose of the paper is to examine the...
