Tldr This paper investigates the null controllability of quasi-linear parabolic systems where diffusion depends on the gradient of the state variable, providing a theoretical proof of local null controllability under regularity assumptions on the diffusion coefficient and initial data. An iterative algorithm is proposed for computing a null control and associated state with numerical experiments illustrating its applicability.
