On the Optimal Control of Variational-hemivariational Inequalities


Lecturer: Xiao Yibin (University of Electronic Science and Technology of China, professor and doctoral supervisor)

Abstract: In this talk, we focus on an elliptic variational-hemivariational inequality in Banach space. We prove a continuous dependence of the solution with respect to a parameter which appears in all the data of the problem, including the set of constraints, the nonlinear operator and the two functionals which govern the variational-hemivariational inequality. This allows us to consider a general associated optimal control problem for which we prove the existence of optimal pairs, together with a new convergence result. The mathematical tools developed are useful in the analysis and control of a large class of boundary value problems which, in a weak formulation, lead to elliptic variational-hemivariational inequalities. To provide an example, we illustrate our results in the study of an inequality which describes the equilibrium of an elastic body in frictional contact with a foundation made of a rigid body covered by a layer of soft material.

Brief introduction of the lecturer:

Xiao Yibin is a professor and doctoral supervisor at the School of Mathematical Sciences, University of Electronic Science and Technology of China.
