چکیده
In this paper we study the variational discretization and mixed finite element methods for optimal control problem governed by semilinear parabolic equations. The space discretization of the state variable is done using usual mixed finite elements. The state and the co-state are approximated by the lowest order RaviartThomas mixed finite element spaces and the control is not discreted. Then we derive a priori error estimates both for the coupled state and the control approximation.

متن کاملAn inverse problem of identifying the coefficient of semilinear parabolic equation
In this paper, a variational iteration method (VIM), which is a well-known method for solving nonlinear equations, has been employed to solve an inverse parabolic partial differential equation. Inverse problems in partial differential equations can be used to model many real problems in engineering and other physical sciences. The VIM is to construct correction functional using general Lagr...
متن کاملSolving the inverse problem of determining an unknown control parameter in a semilinear parabolic equation
The inverse problem of identifying an unknown source control param- eter in a semilinear parabolic equation under an integral overdetermina- tion condition is considered. The series pattern solution of the proposed problem is obtained by using the weighted homotopy analysis method (WHAM). A description of the method for solving the problem and nding the unknown parameter is derived. Finally, tw...
متن کاملA priori error estimates for state constrained semilinear parabolic optimal control problems
We consider the finite element discretization of semilinear parabolic optimization problems subject to pointwise in time constraints on mean values of the state variable. In contrast to many results in numerical analysis of optimization problems subject to semilinear parabolic equations, we assume weak second order sufficient conditions. Relying on the resulting quadratic growth condition of th...
