We consider a linear viscoelastic system of Maxwell-Boltzmann type. Hence, viscosity contributes a memory term to the elastic equation. The system is controlled via the traction exerted on a part $\Gamma_1$ of the boundary of the body. We…
In this paper we study controllability of a linear equation with persistent memory when the control belongs to $ H^k_0(0,T;L^2(\ZOMq)) $. In the case the memory is zero, our equation is reduced to the wave equation and a result due to…
Treatises on vibrations devote large space to study the dynamical behavior of an elastic system subject to known external tractions. In fact, usually a "system" is not an isolated body but it is part of a chain of mechanisms which disturb…
In this paper we consider a viscoelastic three dimensional body (of Maxwell-Boltzmann type) controlled on (part of) the boundary. We assume that the material is isotropic and homogeneous. If the body is elastic (i.e. no dissipation due to…

We are motivated by the problem of control for a non-homogeneous elastic string with memory. We reduce the problem of controllability to a non-standard moment problem. The solution of the latter problem is based on an auxiliary Riesz basis…

It is first shown that a smooth controllable system on a compact manifold is finite time controllable. The technique of proof is close to the one of Sussmann's orbit theorem, and no rank condition is required. This technique is also used to…
