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.

Well-balanced positivity preserving central-upwind scheme on triangular grids for the Saint-Venant system

Steve Bryson, Yekaterina Epshteyn, Alexander Kurganov, Guergana Petrova (2011)

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

We introduce a new second-order central-upwind scheme for the Saint-Venant system of shallow water equations on triangular grids. We prove that the scheme both preserves “lake at rest” steady states and guarantees the positivity of the computed fluid depth. Moreover, it can be applied to models with discontinuous bottom topography and irregular channel widths. We demonstrate these features of the new scheme, as well as its high resolution and robustness in a number of numerical examples.

Well-posedness and regularity of hyperbolic boundary control systems on a one-dimensional spatial domain

Hans Zwart, Yann Le Gorrec, Bernhard Maschke, Javier Villegas (2010)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

We study a class of hyperbolic partial differential equations on a one dimensional spatial domain with control and observation at the boundary. Using the idea of feedback we show these systems are well-posed in the sense of Weiss and Salamon if and only if the state operator generates a C0-semigroup. Furthermore, we show that the corresponding transfer function is regular, i.e., has a limit for s going to infinity.
