Similarity:

In this paper, we prove a controllability result for a fluid-structure interaction problem. In dimension two, a rigid structure moves into an incompressible fluid governed by Navier-Stokes equations. The control acts on a fixed subset of the fluid domain. We prove that, for small initial data, this system is null controllable, that is, for a given T > 0 , the system can be driven at rest and the structure to its reference configuration at time T . To show this result, we first consider a linearized...

Exact controllability of an elastic membrane coupled with a potential fluid

Similarity:

We consider the problem of boundary control of an elastic system with coupling to a potential equation. The potential equation represents the linearized motions of an incompressible inviscid fluid in a cavity bounded in part by an elastic membrane. Sufficient control is placed on a portion of the elastic membrane to insure that the uncoupled membrane is exactly controllable. The main result is that if the density of the fluid is sufficiently small, then the coupled system is exactly...

Approximate controllability for a linear model of fluid structure interaction

Axel Osses, Jean-Pierre Puel (2010)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

Similarity:

We consider a linear model of interaction between a viscous incompressible fluid and a thin elastic structure located on a part of the fluid domain boundary, the other part being rigid. After having given an existence and uniqueness result for the direct problem, we study the question of approximate controllability for this system when the control acts as a normal force applied to the structure. The case of an analytic boundary has been studied by Lions and Zuazua in [9] where, in...

Local null controllability of a fluid-solid interaction problem in dimension 3

Muriel Boulakia, Sergio Guerrero (2013)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

We are interested by the three-dimensional coupling between an incompressible fluid and a rigid body. The fluid is modeled by the Navier-Stokes equations, while the solid satisfies the Newton's laws. In the main result of the paper we prove that, with the help of a distributed control, we can drive the fluid and structure velocities to zero and the solid to a reference position provided that the initial velocities are small enough and the initial position of the structure is close to...

Exact controllability in fluid – solid structure: The Helmholtz model

Jean-Pierre Raymond, Muthusamy Vanninathan (2010)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

Similarity:

A model representing the vibrations of a fluid-solid coupled structure is considered. Following Hilbert Uniqueness Method (HUM) introduced by Lions, we establish exact controllability results for this model with an internal control in the fluid part and there is no control in the solid part. Novel features which arise because of the coupling are pointed out. It is a source of difficulty in the proof of observability inequalities, definition of weak solutions and the proof of controllability...
