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.

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

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...

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.

Optimal feedback control of Ginzburg-Landau equation for superconductivity via differential inclusion

Yuncheng You (1996)

Discussiones Mathematicae, Differential Inclusions, Control and Optimization

Similarity:

Slightly below the transition temperatures, the behavior of superconducting materials is governed by the Ginzburg-Landau (GL) equation which characterizes the dynamical interaction of the density of superconducting electron pairs and the exited electromagnetic potential. In this paper, an optimal control problem of the strength of external magnetic field for one-dimensional thin film superconductors with respect to a convex criterion functional is considered. It is formulated as a nonlinear...
