Well posedness and control of semilinear wave equations with iterated logarithms

Piermarco Cannarsa, Vilmos Komornik, Paola Loreti (2010)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

Motivated by a classical work of Erdős we give rather precise necessary and sufficient growth conditions on the nonlinearity in a semilinear wave equation in order to have global existence for all initial data. Then we improve some former exact controllability theorems of Imanuvilov and Zuazua.

Young-measure approximations for elastodynamics with non-monotone stress-strain relations

Carsten Carstensen, Marc Oliver Rieger (2004)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis - Modélisation Mathématique et Analyse Numérique

Microstructures in phase-transitions of alloys are modeled by the energy minimization of a nonconvex energy density φ . Their time-evolution leads to a nonlinear wave equation u t t = div S ( D u ) with the non-monotone stress-strain relation S = D φ plus proper boundary and initial conditions. This hyperbolic-elliptic initial-boundary value problem of changing types allows, in general, solely Young-measure solutions. This paper introduces a fully-numerical time-space discretization of this equation in a corresponding very...
