Abstract: | We study the problem of optimal control of the distribution of axisymmetric vertical or radial thermal displacements in a given section of an unbounded layer. Using the method of the inverse problem of thermoelasticity we construct the solution of the control problem. For specific cases of heating of the layer we give a numerical analysis of the behavior of the optimal control.Translated fromMatematicheskie Metody i Fiziko-Mekhanicheskie Polya, Issue 34, 1991, pp. 55–61. |
