AbstractModifications of balayage spaces are studied which, in probabilistic terms, correspond to killing and transitions (creation of mass combined with jumps). This is achieved by a modification of harmonic kernels for sufficiently small open sets. Applications to coupling of elliptic and parabolic partial differential equations of second order are discussed.

This paper is concerned with optimal control of a class of distributed-parameter systems governed by first-order, quasilinear hyperbolic partial differential equations that arise in optimal control problems of many physical systems such as fluids dynamics and elastodynamics. The distributed system is controlled via a forced nonlinear periodic boundary condition that describes a boundary control action. Further, the periodic boundary control is subject to a dynamic constraint imposed by a lumped-parameter system governed by ordinary differential equations that model actuator dynamics. The partial differential equations are thus coupled with the ordinary differential equations via the periodic boundary condition. Optimality of this coupled system is investigated using variational principles to seek an adjoint formulation of the optimal control problem. The results are then applied to solve a feedback control problem of the Mach number in a wind tunnel.
