In this paper we study the long time behavior of solutions for an optimal control problem associated with the viscous incompressible electrically conducting fluid modeled by the magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) equations in a bounded two dimensional domain through the adjustment of distributed controls. We first construct a quasi-optimal solution for the MHD systems which possesses exponential decay in time. We then derive some preliminary estimates for the long-time behavior of all admissible solutions of the MHD systems. Next we prove the existence of a solution for the optimal control problem for both finite and infinite time intervals. Finally, we establish the long-time decay properties of the solutions for the optimal control problem.

The optimal control problem for Burgers equation was first considered by Castro, Palacios and Zuazua. They proved the existence of a solution and proposed a numerical scheme to capture an optimal solution via the method of "alternate decent direction". In this paper, we introduce a new strategy for the optimal control problem for scalar conservation laws with convex flux. We propose a new cost function and by the Lax–Oleinik explicit formula for entropy solutions, the nonlinear problem is converted to a linear problem. Exploiting this property, we prove the existence of an optimal solution and, by a backward construction, we give an algorithm to capture an optimal solution.

In this paper, we study an optimal control problem associated to a 3D-chemotaxis-Navier-Stokes model. First we prove the existence of global weak solutions of the state equations with a linear reaction term on the chemical concentration equation, and an external source on the velocity equation, both acting as controls on the system. Second, we establish aregularity criterion to get global-in-time strong solutions. Finally, we prove the existence of an optimal solution, and we establish a first-order optimality condition.

AbstractIn this paper, we consider the long time behavior of solutions for 3D incompressible MHD equations with fractional Laplacian. Firstly, in a periodic bounded domain, we prove the existence of a global attractor. The analysis reveals a relation between the Laplacian exponent and the regularity of the spaces of velocity and magnetic fields. Finally, in the whole space {\mathbb{R}^{3}}, we establish the sharp algebraic decay rate of solutions to the generalized MHD system provided that the parameters satisfy {\alpha,\beta\in(0,2]}.

In this paper, we are concerned with a class of optimal control problem governed by nonlinear first order dynamic equation on time scales. By imposing some suitable conditions on the related functions, for any given control policy, we first obtain the existence of a unique solution for the nonlinear controlled system. Then, we study the existence of an optimal solution for the optimal control problem.

This article examines a linear-quadratic elliptic optimal control problem in which the cost functional and the state equation involve a highly oscillatory periodic coefficient $A^\eps$. The small parameter $\eps>0$ denotes the periodicity length. We propose a high-order effective control problem with constant coefficients that provides an approximation of the original one with error $O(\eps^M)$, where $M\in\N$ is as large as one likes. Our analysis relies on a Bloch wave expansion of the optimal solution and is performed in two steps. In the first step, we expand the lowest Bloch eigenvalue in a Taylor series to obtain a high-order effective optimal control problem. In the second step, the original and the effective problem are rewritten in terms of the Bloch and the Fourier transform, respectively. This allows for a direct comparison of the optimal control problems via the corresponding variational inequalities, leading to our main theoretical result on the high-oder approximation.
