    Optimal control for shape memory alloys of the one-dimensional Frémond model
    (Berlin : Weierstraß-Institut für Angewandte Analysis und Stochastik, 2020) Colli, Pierluigi; Farshbaf Shaker, Mohammad Hassan; Shirakawa, Ken; Yamazaki, Noriaki
    In this paper, we consider optimal control problems for the one-dimensional Frémond model for shape memory alloys. This model is constructed in terms of basic functionals like free energy and pseudo-potential of dissipation. The state problem is expressed by a system of partial differential equations involving the balance equations for energy and momentum. We prove the existence of an optimal control that minimizes the cost functional for a nonlinear and nonsmooth state problem. Moreover, we show the necessary condition of the optimal pair by using optimal control problems for approximating systems.

    Second-order analysis of a boundary control problem for the viscous Cahn-Hilliard equation with dynamic boundary condition
    (Berlin : Weierstraß-Institut für Angewandte Analysis und Stochastik, 2014) Colli, Pierluigi; Farshbaf Shaker, Mohammad Hassan; Gilardi, Gianni; Sprekels, Jürgen
    In this paper we establish second-order sufficient optimality conditions for a boundary control problem that has been introduced and studied by three of the authors in the preprint arXiv:1407.3916. This control problem regards the viscous Cahn-Hilliard equation with possibly singular potentials and dynamic boundary conditions.

    Optimal boundary control of a viscous Cahn-Hilliard system with dynamic boundary condition and double obstacle potentials
    (Berlin : Weierstraß-Institut für Angewandte Analysis und Stochastik, 2014) Colli, Pierluigi; Farshbaf Shaker, Mohammad Hassan; Gilardi, Gianni; Sprekels, Jürgen
    In this paper, we investigate optimal boundary control problems for Cahn--Hilliard variational inequalities with a dynamic boundary condition involving double obstacle potentials and the Laplace--Beltrami operator. The cost functional is of standard tracking type, and box constraints for the controls are prescribed. We prove existence of optimal controls and derive first-order necessary conditions of optimality. The general strategy, which follows the lines of the recent approach by Colli, Farshbaf-Shaker, Sprekels (see Appl. Math. Optim., 2014) to the (simpler) Allen--Cahn case, is the following: we use the results that were recently established by Colli, Gilardi, Sprekels in the preprint arXiv:1407.3916 [math.AP] for the case of (differentiable) logarithmic potentials and perform a so-called ``deep quench limit''. Using compactness and monotonicity arguments, it is shown that this strategy leads to the desired first-order necessary optimality conditions for the case of (non-differentiable) double obstacle potentials.
