Shape optimization of elasto-plastic bodies

Zuzana Dimitrovová (2001)

Applications of Mathematics

Existence of an optimal shape of a deformable body made from a physically nonlinear material obeying a specific nonlinear generalized Hooke’s law (in fact, the so called deformation theory of plasticity is invoked in this case) is proved. Approximation of the problem by finite elements is also discussed.

Singular perturbation for the Dirichlet boundary control of elliptic problems

Faker Ben Belgacem, Henda El Fekih, Hejer Metoui (2003)

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

A current procedure that takes into account the Dirichlet boundary condition with non-smooth data is to change it into a Robin type condition by introducing a penalization term; a major effect of this procedure is an easy implementation of the boundary condition. In this work, we deal with an optimal control problem where the control variable is the Dirichlet data. We describe the Robin penalization, and we bound the gap between the penalized and the non-penalized boundary controls for the small...

Sixty years of cybernetics: a comparison of approaches to solving the H 2 control problem

Vladimír Kučera (2008)

Kybernetika

The H2 control problem consists of stabilizing a control system while minimizing the H2 norm of its transfer function. Several solutions to this problem are available. For systems in state space form, an optimal regulator can be obtained by solving two algebraic Riccati equations. For systems described by transfer functions, either Wiener-Hopf optimization or projection results can be applied. The optimal regulator is then obtained using operations with proper stable rational matrices: inner-outer...
