Abstract: First, let ug be the unique solution of an elliptic variational inequality with source term g. We establish, in the general case, the error estimate between u3(mu)=muug1+(1mu)ug2 %(the convex combination of two solutions) and u4(mu)=umug1+(1mu)g2 %(the solution corresponding to the convex combination of two data) for muin[0,1]. Secondly, we consider a family of distributed optimal control problems governed by elliptic variational inequalities over the internal energy g for each positive heat transfer coefficient h given on a part of the boundary of the domain. For a given cost functional and using some monotony property between u3(mu) and u4(mu) given in F. Mignot, J. Funct. Anal., 22 (1976), 130-185, we prove the strong convergence of the optimal controls and states associated to this family of distributed optimal control problems governed by elliptic variational inequalities to a limit Dirichlet distributed optimal control problem, governed also by an elliptic variational inequality, when the parameter h goes to infinity. We obtain this convergence without using the adjoint state problem (or the Mignot's conical differentiability) which is a great advantage with respect to the proof given in C.M. Gariboldi - D.A. Tarzia, Appl. Math. Optim., 47 (2003), 213-230, for optimal control problems governed by elliptic variational equalities.
