Circunvection force.

Optimal control applied to collective behaviour

The standard approach for solving a driving problem is a leadership strategy, based on the attraction that a driver agent exerts on other agent. Repulsion forces are mostly used for collision avoidance, defending a target or describing the need for personal space. We present a “guidance by repulsion” model describing the behaviour of two agents, a driver and an evader...

Greedy Control

Control of a parameter dependent system in a robust manner. Fix a control time $T > 0$, an arbitrary initial data $x^0$, and a final target $x^1 \in R^N$...

Control under constraints (CC)

Most of the existing theory of controllability for PDEs has been developed in the absence of constraints on the controls and states. Thus, in practice, available results do not guarantee…

Long time horizon control (LTHC)

Control problems for evolution PDEs are most often considered in finite time intervals, without paying attention to the length of the control horizon and how it affects the nature of…

Control of parameter dependent problems (PDC)

In real applications, models are not completely known since relevant parameters (deterministic or stochastic) are subject to uncertainty and indetermination. Accordingly, for practical purposes, robust analytical and computational methods are…
