Mathematical model and optimal control of flow induced vibration of pipelines

N.U. Ahmed (1999)

Discussiones Mathematicae, Differential Inclusions, Control and Optimization

In this paper we consider a dynamic model for flow induced vibration of pipelines. We study the questions of existence and uniqueness of solutions of the system. Considering the flow rate as the control variable, we present three different necessary conditions of optimality. The last one with state constraint involves Differential Inclusions. The paper is concluded with an algorithm for computing the optimal controls.

Mathematical Modelling of Cancer Stem Cells Population Behavior

E. Beretta, V. Capasso, N. Morozova (2012)

Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena

Recent discovery of cancer stem cells in tumorigenic tissues has raised many questions about their nature, origin, function and their behavior in cell culture. Most of current experiments reporting a dynamics of cancer stem cell populations in culture show the eventual stability of the percentages of these cell populations in the whole population of cancer cells, independently of the starting conditions. In this paper we propose a mathematical model...

Maximal regularity of delay equations in Banach spaces

Carlos Lizama, Verónica Poblete (2006)

Studia Mathematica

We characterize existence and uniqueness of solutions for an inhomogeneous abstract delay equation in Hölder spaces. The main tool is the theory of operator-valued Fourier multipliers.

Maximal regularity of second-order evolution equations with infinite delay in Banach spaces

Xianlong Fu, Ming Li (2014)

Studia Mathematica

By using Fourier multiplier theorems we characterize the existence and uniqueness of periodic solutions for a class of second-order differential equations with infinite delay. We also establish maximal regularity results for the equations in various spaces. An example is provided to illustrate the applications of the results obtained.

Maximum principle for optimal control of fully coupled forward-backward stochastic differential delayed equations

Jianhui Huang, Jingtao Shi (2012)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

This paper deals with the optimal control problem in which the controlled system is described by a fully coupled anticipated forward-backward stochastic differential delayed equation. The maximum principle for this problem is obtained under the assumption that the diffusion coefficient does not contain the control variables and the control domain is not necessarily convex. Both the necessary and sufficient conditions of optimality are proved. As illustrating examples, two kinds of linear quadratic...

Mean-Periodic Functions Associated with the Jacobi-Dunkl Operator on R

Ben Salem, N., Ould Ahmed Salem, A., Selmi, B. (2006)

Fractional Calculus and Applied Analysis

2000 Mathematics Subject Classification: 34K99, 44A15, 44A35, 42A75, 42A63Using a convolution structure on the real line associated with the Jacobi-Dunkl differential-difference operator Λα,β given by: Λα,βf(x) = f'(x) + ((2α + 1) coth x + (2β + 1) tanh x) { ( f(x) − f(−x) ) / 2 }, α ≥ β ≥ −1/2 , we define mean-periodic functions associated with Λα,β. We characterize these functions as an expansion series intervening appropriate elementary functions expressed in terms of the derivatives of the...

Measure solutions for semilinear evolution equations with polynomial growth and their optimal control

N.U. Ahmed (1997)

Discussiones Mathematicae, Differential Inclusions, Control and Optimization

In this paper we introduce a new concept of generalized solutions generalizing the notion of relaxed solutions recently introduced by Fattorini. We present some results on the question of existence of generalized or measure valued solutions for semilinear evolution equations on Banach spaces with polynomial nonlinearities. The results are illustrated by two examples one of which arises in nonlinear quantum mechanics. The results are then applied to some control problems.

Mechanical oscillators with dampers defined by implicit constitutive relations

Dalibor Pražák, Kumbakonam R. Rajagopal (2016)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

We study the vibrations of lumped parameter systems, the spring being defined by the classical linear constitutive relationship between the spring force and the elongation while the dashpot is described by a general implicit relationship between the damping force and the velocity. We prove global existence of solutions for the governing equations, and discuss conditions that the implicit relation satisfies that are sufficient for the uniqueness of solutions. We also present some counterexamples...
