Magnetization switching on small ferromagnetic ellipsoidal samples

François Alouges, Karine Beauchard (2009)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

The study of small magnetic particles has become a very important topic, in particular for the development of technological devices such as those used for magnetic recording. In this field, switching the magnetization inside the magnetic sample is of particular relevance. We here investigate mathematically this problem by considering the full partial differential model of Landau-Lifschitz equations triggered by a uniform (in space) external magnetic field.

Mathematical modeling of delamination and nonmonotone friction problems by hemivariational inequalities

Charalambos C. Baniotopoulos, Jaroslav Haslinger, Zuzana Morávková (2005)

Applications of Mathematics

The paper deals with approximations and the numerical realization of a class of hemivariational inequalities used for modeling of delamination and nonmonotone friction problems. Assumptions guaranteeing convergence of discrete models are verified and numerical results of several model examples computed by a nonsmooth variant of Newton method are presented.

Maxwell strata in sub-Riemannian problem on the group of motions of a plane

Igor Moiseev, Yuri L. Sachkov (2010)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

The left-invariant sub-Riemannian problem on the group of motions of a plane is considered. Sub-Riemannian geodesics are parameterized by Jacobi's functions. Discrete symmetries of the problem generated by reflections of pendulum are described. The corresponding Maxwell points are characterized, on this basis an upper bound on the cut time is obtained.

Mean-Field Optimal Control

Massimo Fornasier, Francesco Solombrino (2014)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

We introduce the concept of mean-field optimal control which is the rigorous limit process connecting finite dimensional optimal control problems with ODE constraints modeling multi-agent interactions to an infinite dimensional optimal control problem with a constraint given by a PDE of Vlasov-type, governing the dynamics of the probability distribution of interacting agents. While in the classical mean-field theory one studies the behavior of a large number of small individuals freely interacting...

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.

Measure valued solutions for systems governed by neutral differential equations on Banach spaces and their optimal control

N.U. Ahmed (2013)

Discussiones Mathematicae, Differential Inclusions, Control and Optimization

In this paper we consider the question of existence of measure valued solutions for neutral differential equations on Banach spaces when there is no mild solutions. We prove the existence of measure solutions and their regularity properties. We consider also control problems of such systems and prove existence of optimal feedback controls for some interesting a-typical control problems.

Méthodes de réalisation de produit scalaire et de problème de moments avec maximisation d'entropie

Valerie Girardin (1997)

Studia Mathematica

We develop several methods of realization of scalar product and generalized moment problems. Constructions are made by use of a Hilbertian method or a fixed point method. The constructed solutions are rational fractions and exponentials of polynomials. They are connected to entropy maximization. We give the general form of the maximizing solution. We show how it is deduced from the maximizing solution of the algebraic moment problem.
