On the optimal control of a linear peridynamics model (Q6073842): Difference between revisions

The paper discusses an optimal control problem whose associated constraint equations are based on the linear bond-based peridynamics model in solid mechanics. Such problems arise for example in physical processes with discontinuities like the formation of cracks in solids. The main results include the well-posedness of the problem and certain aspects of the behavior of the optimal pair as the peridynamic horizon tends to zero. Numerical methods and their asymptotic properties are addressed as well.
