Numerical optimal control of the wave equation: optimal boundary control of a string to rest in finite time
In many real-life applications of optimal control problems with constraints in form of partial differential equations (PDEs), hyperbolic equations are involved which typically desc...

Semismooth Newton Methods for Optimal Control of the Wave Equation with Control Constraints
In this paper optimal control problems governed by the wave equation with control constraints are analyzed. Three types of control action are considered: distributed control, Neuma...

Stars of vibrating strings: Switching boundary feedback stabilization
We consider a star-shaped network consisting of a single node with N 3 connected arcs. The dynamics on each arc is governed by the wave equation. The arcs are coupled at the node ...

On the state-space design of optimal controllers for distributed systems with finite communication speed
— We consider the problem of designing optimal distributed controllers whose impulse response has limited propagation speed. We introduce a state-space framework in which such co...

A Convergent Reinforcement Learning Algorithm in the Continuous Case: The Finite-Element Reinforcement Learning
This paper presents a direct reinforcement learning algorithm, called Finite-Element Reinforcement Learning, in the continuous case, i.e. continuous state-space and time. The eval...
