Positivity and contractivity in the dynamics of clusters’ splitting with derivative of fractional order

Emile Franc Doungmo Goufo, Stella Mugisha (2015)

Open Mathematics

Classical models of clusters’ fission have failed to fully explain strange phenomenons like the phenomenon of shattering (Ziff et al., 1987) and the sudden appearance of infinitely many particles in some systems with initial finite particles number. Furthermore, the bounded perturbation theorem presented in (Pazy, 1983) is not in general true in solution operators theory for models of fractional order γ (with 0 < γ ≤ 1). In this article, we introduce and study a model that can be understood as...

Rate independent Kurzweil processes

Pavel Krejčí, Matthias Liero (2009)

Applications of Mathematics

The Kurzweil integral technique is applied to a class of rate independent processes with convex energy and discontinuous inputs. We prove existence, uniqueness, and continuous data dependence of solutions in B V spaces. It is shown that in the context of elastoplasticity, the Kurzweil solutions coincide with natural limits of viscous regularizations when the viscosity coefficient tends to zero. The discontinuities produce an additional positive dissipation term, which is not homogeneous of degree...

Relaxation of optimal control problems in Lp-SPACES

Nadir Arada (2010)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

We consider control problems governed by semilinear parabolic equations with pointwise state constraints and controls in an Lp-space (p < ∞). We construct a correct relaxed problem, prove some relaxation results, and derive necessary optimality conditions.

We consider control problems governed by semilinear parabolic equations with pointwise state constraints and controls in an L p -space ( p &lt; ). We construct a correct relaxed problem, prove some relaxation results, and derive necessary optimality conditions.

Sensitivity analysis of a nonlinear obstacle plate problem

Isabel N. Figueiredo, Carlos F. Leal (2002)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

We analyse the sensitivity of the solution of a nonlinear obstacle plate problem, with respect to small perturbations of the middle plane of the plate. This analysis, which generalizes the results of [9, 10] for the linear case, is done by application of an abstract variational result [6], where the sensitivity of parameterized variational inequalities in Banach spaces, without uniqueness of solution, is quantified in terms of a generalized derivative, that is the proto-derivative. We prove that...

Sensitivity analysis of solutions to a class of quasi-variational inequalities

Samir Adly, Mohamed Ait Mansour, Laura Scrimali (2005)

Bollettino dell'Unione Matematica Italiana

We provide a sensitivity result for the solutions to the following finite-dimensional quasi-variational inequality Q V I u K u , C u , v - u 0 , v K u , when both the operator C and the convex K are perturbed. In particular, we prove the Hölder continuity of the solution sets of the problems perturbed around the original problem. All the results may be extended to infinite-dimensional (QVI).

Shape and topological sensitivity analysis in domains with cracks

Alexander Khludnev, Jan Sokołowski, Katarzyna Szulc (2010)

Applications of Mathematics

The framework for shape and topology sensitivity analysis in geometrical domains with cracks is established for elastic bodies in two spatial dimensions. The equilibrium problem for the elastic body with cracks is considered. Inequality type boundary conditions are prescribed at the crack faces providing a non-penetration between the crack faces. Modelling of such problems in two spatial dimensions is presented with all necessary details for further applications in shape optimization in structural...

Shape optimization for dynamic contact problems

Andrzej Myśliński (2000)

Discussiones Mathematicae, Differential Inclusions, Control and Optimization

The paper deals with shape optimization of dynamic contact problem with Coulomb friction for viscoelastic bodies. The mass nonpenetrability condition is formulated in velocities. The friction coefficient is assumed to be bounded. Using material derivative method as well as the results concerning the regularity of solution to dynamic variational inequality the directional derivative of the cost functional is calculated and the necessary optimality condition is formulated.

Slice convergence : stabilité et optimisation dans les espaces non réflexifs

Khalid El Hajioui, Driss Mentagui (2004)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

Il est démontré par Mentagui [ESAIM : COCV 9 (2003) 297-315] que, dans le cas des espaces de Banach généraux, la convergence d’Attouch-Wets est stable par une classe d’opérations classiques de l’analyse convexe, lorsque les limites des suites d’ensembles et de fonctions satisfont certaines conditions de qualification naturelles. Ceci tombe en défaut avec la slice convergence. Dans cet article, nous établissons des conditions de qualification uniformes assurant la stabilité de la slice convergence...
