    State-constrained optimal control of semilinear elliptic equations with nonlocal radiation interface conditions
    (Berlin : Weierstraß-Institut für Angewandte Analysis und Stochastik, 2007) Meyer, Christian; Yousept, Irwin
    We consider a control- and state-constrained optimal control problem governed by a semilinear elliptic equation with nonlocal interface conditions. These conditions occur during the modeling of diffuse-gray conductive-radiative heat transfer. The nonlocal radiation interface condition and the pointwise state-constraints represent the particular features of this problem. To deal with the state-constraints, continuity of the state is shown which allows to derive first-order necessary conditions. Afterwards, we establish second-order sufficient conditions that account for strongly active sets and ensure local optimality in an $L^2$-neighborhood.

    Regularization of state-constrained elliptic optimal control problems with nonlocal radiation interface conditions
    (Berlin : Weierstraß-Institut für Angewandte Analysis und Stochastik, 2007) Meyer, Christian; Yousept, Irwin
    A state-constrained optimal control problem with nonlocal radiation interface conditions arising from the modeling of crystal growth processes is considered. The problem is approximated by a Moreau-Yosida type regularization. Optimality conditions for the regularized problem are derived and the convergence of the regularized problems is shown. In the last part of the paper, some numerical results are presented.

    Optimal control of 3D state constrained induction heating problems with nonlocal radiation effects
    (Berlin : Weierstraß-Institut für Angewandte Analysis und Stochastik, 2009) Druet, Pierre-Étienne; Klein, Olaf; Sprekels, Jürgen; Tröltzsch, Fredi; Yousept, Irwin
    The paper is concerned with a class of optimal heating problems in semiconductor single crystal growth processes. To model the heating process, time-harmonic Maxwell equations are considered in the system of the state. Due to the high temperatures characterizing crystal growth, it is necessary to include nonlocal radiation boundary conditions and a temperature-dependent heat conductivity in the description of the heat transfer process. The first goal of this paper is to prove the existence and uniqueness of the solution to the state equation. The regularity analysis associated with the time harmonic Maxwell equations is also studied. In the second part of the paper, the existence and uniqueness of the solution to the corresponding linearized equation is shown. With this result at hand, the differentiability of the control-to-state mapping operator associated with the state equation is derived. Finally, based on the theoretical results, first oder necessary optimality conditions for an associated optimal control problem are established.
