Interacting flexible structures with localized strong damping mecha-
nisms: Semigroup stability and regularity.

 Thanks, first to a conjecture of Goong Chen and David Russell
(1982), then to results of Roberto Triggiani and Shuping Chen (1989, 1990), responding to that conjecture, it has been known since the late eighties that the Euler-Bernoulli plate with structural or Kelvin-Voigt damping exhibits an analytic and exponentially stable semigroup.

Then came the natural question: What happens to these semigroup properties when the structural or Kelvin-Voigt damping is localized?

In the late nineties, Kangsheng Liu and Zhuangyi Liu (1998) showed that the semigroup corresponding to an Euler-Bernoulli beam with localized Kelvin- Voigt damping is exponentially stable, but not analytic; in the same paper, those authors proved that the string equation with localized Kelvin-Voigt damping is not exponentially stable when the damping coefficient is discontinuous.

In this talk, I’ll give a brief historical account of what is known in this frame-work, then share recent findings with my collaborators Irena Lasiecka (case of Euler-Bernoulli plate with localized structural or Kelvin-Voigt damping),and Ka ̈ıs Ammari, Fathi Hassine and Souleymane Kadri Harouna (case of coupled wave equations with localized singular Kelvin-Voigt damping).

PARABOLIC SYSTEM WITH BOUNDARY CONDITIONS:WELL-POSEDNESS AND NULL CONTROLLABILITY

 

In this talk, we present some results on wellposedness and (internal
and boundary) null controllability of the parabolic equation with dynamic
boundary conditions and drift terms

∂ty − d∆y + B(x).∇y + c(x).y = 1ωu + f in ΩT ,
∂tyΓ − δ∆ΓyΓ + d∂νy + b(x).∇ΓyΓ + l(x)yΓ = 1Γ0v +g on ΓT 

y|Γ(t, x) = yΓ(t, x) on ΓT ,

y(0, ·) = y0 in Ω,
y|Γ(0, ·) = y0,Γ on Γ,
where Ω is a bounded domain of RN , with smooth boundary Γ = ∂Ω of
class C2
, ν(x) is the outer unit normal field to Ω in the point M(x) of Γ,
∂νy := (ν.∇y)|Γ, d, δ are positive real numbers, c ∈ L∞(Ω), l ∈ L∞(Γ),
B ∈ L∞(Ω)N , b ∈ L∞(Γ)N , f ∈ L2((0, T) × Ω) and g ∈ L2((0, T) × Γ). The
functions u and v are internal and boundary controls, acting on small regions ω and Γ0, respectively.
We study first the wellposedness of the above system and its associated adjoint system. To obtain boundary and null controllability, we prove adequate observability inequalities, which are obtained by establishing new internal and boundary Carleman estimates for the backward adjoint problems.
