- ItemA boundary control problem for the pure Cahn–Hilliard equation with dynamic boundary conditions(Berlin ; Boston, Mass. : de Gruyter, 2015) Colli, Pierluigi; Gilardi, Gianni; Sprekels, JürgenA boundary control problem for the pure Cahn–Hilliard equations with possibly singular potentialsand dynamic boundary conditions is studied and rst-order necessary conditions for optimality are proved.
- ItemDistributed optimal control of a nonstandard nonlocal phase field system(Springfield, MO : AIMS Press, 2016) Colli, Pierluigi; Gilardi, Gianni; Sprekels, JürgenWe investigate a distributed optimal control problem for a nonlocal phase field model of viscous Cahn-Hilliard type. The model constitutes a nonlocal version of a model for two-species phase segregation on an atomic lattice under the presence of diffusion that has been studied in a series of papers by P. Podio-Guidugli and the present authors. The model consists of a highly nonlinear parabolic equation coupled to an ordinary differential equation. The latter equation contains both nonlocal and singular terms that render the analysis difficult. Standard arguments of optimal control theory do not apply directly, although the control constraints and the cost functional are of standard type. We show that the problem admits a solution, and we derive the first-order necessary conditions of optimality.
