Boundary controllability for a degenerate beam equation

Analysis of PDEs 2023-02-14 v1

Abstract

The paper deals with the controllability of a degenerate beam equation. In particular, we assume that the left end of the beam is fixed, while a suitable control ff acts on the right end of it. As a first step we prove the existence of a solution for the homogeneous problem, then we prove some estimates on its energy. Thanks to them we prove an observability inequality and, using the notion of solution by transposition, we prove that the initial problem is null controllable.
