Tracking control of a flexible beam by nonlinear boundary feedback.
A vibrating string, modelled by the wave equation, with an interior mass is considered. It is viewed as a linear delay system. A trajectory tracking problem is solved using a new type of controllability.
L'attività di ricerca di chi scrive si è finora indirizzata principalmente verso l'esame dei modelli di transizione di fase, dei modelli di isteresi, e delle relative equazioni non lineari alle derivate parziali. Qui si illustrano brevemente tali problematiche, indicando alcuni degli elementi che le collegano tra di loro. Il lavoro è organizzato come segue. I paragrafi 1, 2, 3 vertono sulle transizioni di fase: si introducono le formulazioni forte e debole del classico modello di Stefan, e si illustrano...
In this Note II we continue the analysis of the phenomenon of mechanical twinning that we began in a preceding Note I. Furthermore, we point out some fundamental properties useful in the study of growth twins, for which a fully comprehensive thermoelastic theory is not yet available.
In the present Note I and in a following Note II (Zanzotto 1988), we discuss, taking into account some available experimental data, the results of a thermoelastic theory of twinning in crystalline solids. Various noteworthy problems emerge, some of which involve the hypotheses that are at the very basis of the theory.
In this work, depending on the relation between the Deborah, the Reynolds and the aspect ratio numbers, we formally derived shallow-water type systems starting from a micro-macro description for non-Newtonian fluids in a thin domain governed by an elastic dumbbell type model with a slip boundary condition at the bottom. The result has been announced by the authors in [G. Narbona-Reina, D. Bresch, Numer. Math. and Advanced Appl. Springer Verlag (2010)] and in the present paper, we provide a self-contained...
The aim of this paper is to present and solve a mathematical model of a two-aircraft optimal control problem reducing the noise on the ground during the approach. The mathematical modelization of this problem is a non-convex optimal control governed by ordinary non-linear differential equations. To solve this problem, A direct method and a Runge-Kutta RK4 discretization schema are used. This discretization schema is chosed because it is a sufficiently high order and it does-not require computation...
