This book discusses theoretical approaches to the study of optimal control problems governed by non-linear evolutions - including semi-linear equations, variational inequalities and systems with phase transitions. It also provides algorithms for solving non-linear parabolic systems and multiphase Stefan-like systems.
The topic of this thesis is the theoretical and numerical research of optimal control problems for uncertain nonlinear systems, described by semilinear parabolic differential equations with additive noise, where the state is not completely available. Based on a paper by Kazufumi Ito and Karl Kunisch, which was published in 2006 with the title "Receding Horizon Control with Incomplete Observations", we analyze a Model Predictive Control (MPC) approach where the resulting linear problems on small intervals are solved with a Linear Quadratic Gaussian (LQG) design. Further we define a performance index for the MPC/LQG approach, find estimates for it and present bounds for the solutions of the underlying Riccati equations. Another large part of the thesis is devoted to extensive numerical studies for an 1+1- and 3+1-dimensional problem to show the robustness of the MPC/LQG strategy. The last part is a generalization of the MPC/LQG approach to infinite-dimensional problems.
In this work, we have studied the quadratic cost optimal control problems and their numerical analysis of nonlinear parabolic distributed parameter systems. After established the fundamental existence and uniqueness results, we have developed the nonlinear optimal control theory for the equations having uniform Lipschitz continuous nonlinearity. Then we have applied the theoretical results to practical nonlinear parabolic partial differential equations including reaction-diffusion equations, diffusion Hopfield neural network equations. Furthermore, numerical evidences for these issues have also been solved by using variational method and finite element approach.
Optimal control theory is concerned with finding control functions that minimize cost functions for systems described by differential equations. The methods have found widespread applications in aeronautics, mechanical engineering, the life sciences, and many other disciplines. This book focuses on optimal control problems where the state equation is an elliptic or parabolic partial differential equation. Included are topics such as the existence of optimal solutions, necessary optimality conditions and adjoint equations, second-order sufficient conditions, and main principles of selected numerical techniques. It also contains a survey on the Karush-Kuhn-Tucker theory of nonlinear programming in Banach spaces. The exposition begins with control problems with linear equations, quadratic cost functions and control constraints. To make the book self-contained, basic facts on weak solutions of elliptic and parabolic equations are introduced. Principles of functional analysis are introduced and explained as they are needed. Many simple examples illustrate the theory and its hidden difficulties. This start to the book makes it fairly self-contained and suitable for advanced undergraduates or beginning graduate students. Advanced control problems for nonlinear partial differential equations are also discussed. As prerequisites, results on boundedness and continuity of solutions to semilinear elliptic and parabolic equations are addressed. These topics are not yet readily available in books on PDEs, making the exposition also interesting for researchers. Alongside the main theme of the analysis of problems of optimal control, Tröltzsch also discusses numerical techniques. The exposition is confined to brief introductions into the basic ideas in order to give the reader an impression of how the theory can be realized numerically. After reading this book, the reader will be familiar with the main principles of the numerical analysis of PDE-constrained optimization.
Designed for one-semester introductory senior-or graduate-level course, the authors provide the student with an introduction of analysis techniques used in the design of nonlinear and optimal feedback control systems. There is special emphasis on the fundamental topics of stability, controllability, and optimality, and on the corresponding geometry associated with these topics. Each chapter contains several examples and a variety of exercises.
This monograph is devoted to the global existence, uniqueness and asymptotic behaviour of smooth solutions to both initial value problems and initial boundary value problems for nonlinear parabolic equations and hyperbolic parabolic coupled systems. Most of the material is based on recent research carried out by the author and his collaborators. The book can be divided into two parts. In the first part, the results on decay of solutions to nonlinear parabolic equations and hyperbolic parabolic coupled systems are obtained, and a chapter is devoted to the global existence of small smooth solutions to fully nonlinear parabolic equations and quasilinear hyperbolic parabolic coupled systems. Applications of the results to nonlinear thermoelasticity and fluid dynamics are also shown. Some nonlinear parabolic equations and coupled systems arising from the study of phase transitions are investigated in the second part of the book. The global existence, uniqueness and asymptotic behaviour of smooth solutions with arbitrary initial data are obtained. The final chapter is further devoted to related topics: multiplicity of equilibria and the existence of a global attractor, inertial manifold and inertial set. A knowledge of partial differential equations and Sobolev spaces is assumed. As an aid to the reader, the related concepts and results are collected and the relevant references given in the first chapter. The work will be of interest to researchers and graduate students in pure and applied mathematics, mathematical physics and applied sciences.
The optimal control problems governed by partial differential equations have developed very fast in the last 30 years, and it has brought a promising and vital researching domain to the subject of mathematics. The optimal control problems governed by partial differential equations concern many applications in physics, chemistry, biology, etc., such as materials design, crystal growth, temperature control, petroleum exploitation, and so on. The partial differential equations involved in these problems include elliptic equations, parabolic equations and hyperbolic equations. Our objective of this book, which consists of three chapters, aims to introduce the analytical and numerical solutions of constrained optimal control problems of quasilinear parabolic systems.
