Control Theory of Systems Governed by Partial Differential Equations covers the proceedings of the 1976 Conference by the same title, held at the Naval Surface

1. The development of a theory of optimal control (deterministic) requires the following initial data: (i) a control u belonging to some set ilIi ad (the set of

Many engineering and scientific problems in design, control, and parameter estimation can be formulated as optimization problems that are governed by partial di

Our understanding of the fundamental processes of the natural world is based to a large extent on partial differential equations (PDEs). The second edition of P
