  3. 8. Adaptive Finite Element Methods for Optimal Control Problems

    Author : Karin Kraft; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; finite element method; discontinuous Galerkin method; optimal control; a posteriori error estimate; dual weighted residual; adaptive; multilevel algorithm; Newton method; control constraint; variational inequality; vehicle dynamics.;

    Abstract : In this thesis we study the numerical solution of optimal control problems. The problems considered consist of a system of differential equations, the state equations, which are governed by a control variable. The goal is to determine the states and controls which minimize a given cost functional. READ MORE

  5. 10. Some special problems in elliptic and parabolic variational inequalities

    Author : Gulchehra Kulieva; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Matematik; Mathematics;

    Abstract : This Licentiate Thesis is devoted above all to the investigation of variational inequalities. Chapter 1 deals with linear elliptic variational inequalities, where the operator is degenerated or singular, which involves the use of some weighted Sobolev spaces. READ MORE
