We discuss the sidewise control properties of 1-d waves. In analogy with classical control and inverse problems for wave propagation, the problem consists on controlling the behaviour of waves on part of the boundary of the domain where…

We study the controllability of the multidimensional wave equation in a bounded domain with Dirichlet boundary condition, in which the support of the control is allowed to change over time. The exact controllability is reduced to the proof…
We study the tracking or sidewise controllability of the heat equation. More precisely, we seek for controls that, acting on part of the boundary of the domain where the heat process evolves, aim to assure that the normal trace or flux on…

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 study the tracking controllability of a 1D parabolic type equation. Notably, with controls acting on the boundary, we seek to approximately control the solution of the equation on specific points of the domain. We prove…

We consider optimal control of the scalar wave equation where the control enters as a coefficient in the principal part. Adding a total variation penalty allows showing existence of optimal controls, which requires continuity results for…
