We study a class of models for brittle fracture: elastic theory models which allow for cracks but not for plastic flow. We show that these models exhibit, at all finite temperatures, a transition to fracture under applied load similar to…
We prove convergence of the proximal policy gradient method for a class of constrained stochastic control problems with control in both the drift and diffusion of the state process. The problem requires either the running or terminal cost…
We consider stochastic optimal control of linear dynamical systems with additive non-Gaussian disturbance. We propose a novel, sampling-free approach, based on Fourier transformations and convex optimization, to cast the stochastic optimal…
In this paper we derive the one-dimensional bending-torsion equilibrium model modeling the junction of straight rods. The starting point is a three-dimensional nonlinear elasticity equilibrium problem written as a minimization problem for a…
This paper is dedicated to the stability analysis of the optimal solutions of a control problem associated with a semilinear elliptic equation. The linear differential operator of the equation is neither monotone nor coercive due to the…
We study the problem of optimally managing an inventory with unknown demand trend. Our formulation leads to a stochastic control problem under partial observation, in which a Brownian motion with non-observable drift can be singularly…
We consider an optimal control problem for the Navier-Stokes system with Navier slip boundary conditions. We denote by $\alpha$ the friction coefficient and we analyze the asymptotic behavior of such a problem as $\alpha\to \infty$. More…
In order to provide robust, reliable, and accurate position and velocity control of motor drives, friction compensation has emerged as a key difficulty. Non-characterised friction could give rise to large position errors and vibrations…
This work considers Bayesian experimental design for the inverse boundary value problem of linear elasticity in a two-dimensional setting. The aim is to optimize the positions of compactly supported pressure activations on the boundary of…
We consider an optimal control problem $\cQ$ governed by an elliptic quasivariational inequality with unilateral constraints. The existence of optimal pairs of the problem is a well known result, see \cite{SS}, for instance. We associate to…
In this paper we present and analyze a weighted residual a posteriori error estimate for an optimal control problem. The problem involves a nondifferentiable cost functional, a state equation with an integral fractional Laplacian, and…
An initial-boundary value problem for the multidimensional type III thermoelaticity for a nonsimple material with a center of symmetry is considered. In the linear case, the well-posedness with and without Kelvin-Voigt and/or frictional…
In this paper we establish existence, uniqueness, and boundedness results for an elliptic variational inequality coupled with a nonlinear ordinary differential equation. Under the general framework, we present a new application modelling…
An exact transformation method is introduced that reduces the governing equations of a continuum structure coupled to strong nonlinearities to a low dimensional equation with memory. The method is general and well suited to problems with…
Contraction properties of the Riccati operator are studied within the context of non-stationary linear-quadratic optimal control. A lifting approach is used to obtain a bound on the rate of strict contraction, with respect to the Riemannian…
We consider a stochastic control problem where the set of strict (classical) controls is not necessarily convex and the the variable control has two components, the first being absolutely continuous and the second singular. The system is…
This paper is devoted to a study of time-dependent hemivariational inequality. We prove existence and uniqueness of its solution, provide fully discrete scheme and reformulate this scheme as a series of nonsmooth optimization problems. This…
This paper represents a sequel to the previous one, where numerical solution of a quasistatic contact problem is considered for an elastic body in frictional contact with a moving foundation. The model takes into account wear of the contact…
We study the deformations of elastic filaments confined within slowly-shrinking circular boundaries, under contact forces with friction. We perform computations with a spring-lattice model that deforms like a thin inextensible filament of…
We consider hyperelastic problems and their numerical solution using a conforming finite element discretization and iterative linearization algorithms. For these problems, we present equilibrated, weakly symmetric, $H(\rm{div)}$-conforming…
