J.-C. Cortes, A. Navarro-Quiles, J.-V. Romero, M.-D. Rosello, Enrique Zuazua. Full probabilistic solution of a infinite dimensional linear control system with random initial and final conditions (2019) Abstract. In this paper we perform a complete probabilistic study of a nite dimensional linear control system with uncertainty. The controllability condition with random initial data and final…
Inverse design for the one-dimensional Burgers equation
T. Liard, E. Zuazua. Inverse design for the one-dimensional Burgers equation. (2019) Abstract. In this paper, we study the problem of inverse design for the one-dimensional Burgers equation. This problem consists in identifying the set of initial data evolving to a given target at a final time. Due to the time-irreversibility of the Burgers equation,…
Constrained control of bistable reaction-diffusion equations: Gene-flow and spatially heterogeneous models
I. Mazari, D. Ruiz-Balet, E. Zuazua. Constrained control of bistable reaction-diffusion equations: Gene-flow and spatially heterogeneous models. (2019) ⟨hal-02373668⟩ Abstract. In this article, we study gene-flow models and the influence of spatial heterogeneity on the dynamics of bistable reaction-diffusion equations from the control point of view. We establish controllability results under geometric assumptions on the…
Control under constraints for multi-dimensional reaction-diffusion monostable and bistable equations
D. Ruiz-Balet, E. Zuazua. Control under constraints for multi-dimensional reaction-diffusion monostable and bistable equations. (2019) Abstract. Dynamic phenomena in social and biological sciences can often be modeled employing reaction diffusion equations. Frequently in applications, their control plays an important role when avoiding population extinction or propagation of infectious diseases, enhancing multicultural features, etc. When addressing…
Asymptotic behavior and control of a “guidance by repulsion” model
Dongnam Ko, E. Zuazua. Asymptotic behavior and control of a “guidance by repulsion” model Abstract. We model and analyze a herding problem, where the drivers try to steer the evaders’ trajectories while the evaders always move away from the drivers. This problem is motivated by the guidance-by-repulsion model [Escobedo, R., Ibañez, A. and Zuazua, E.…
Nonnegative control of finite-dimensional linear systems
J. Lohéac, E. Trélat, E. Zuazua. Nonnegative control of finite-dimensional linear systems Abstract. We consider the controllability problem for finite-dimensional linear autonomous control systems with nonnegative controls. Despite the Kalman condition, the unilateral nonnegativity control constraint may cause a positive minimal controllability time. When this happens, we prove that, if the matrix of the system…
The Vlasov-Fokker-Planck Equation with High Dimensional Parametric Forcing Term
Shi Jin, Yuhua Zhu, Enrique Zuazua. The Vlasov-Fokker-Planck Equation with High Dimensional Parametric Forcing Term Abstract. We consider the Vlasov-Fokker-Planck equation with random electric field where the random field is parametrized by countably many infinite random variables due to uncertainty. At the theoretical level, with suitable assumption on the anisotropy of the randomness, adopting the…
Model reduction of converter-dominated power systems by Singular Perturbation Theory
U. Biccari, Noboru Sakamoto, Eneko Unamuno, Danel Madariaga, Enrique Zuazua, Jon Andoni Barrena Model reduction of converter-dominated power systems by Singular Perturbation Theory Abstract: The increasing integration of power electronic devices is driving the development of more advanced tools and methods for the modeling, analysis, and control of modern power systems to cope with the…
Controllability of one-dimensional viscous free boundary flows
B. Geshkovski, E. Zuazua Controllability of one-dimensional viscous free boundary flows Abstract: In this work, we address the local controllability of a one-dimensional free boundary problem for a fluid governed by the viscous Burgers equation. The free boundary manifests itself as one moving end of the interval, and its evolution is given by the value…
