). Its goal is to choose a place to apply an actuator in a given area depending on time. The objective function is quadratic, its first term captures the desired final state $\bar{u}\equiv 0$, the second term regularize the state over time and the third term regularize the continuous controls. The constraints are a source budget, which limits the quantity of placed actuators, and the two-dimensional heat equation with some source function. Additionally, we assume Dirichlet boundary conditions and initial conditions.

Mathematical formulation

$\begin{array}{llcl} \min\limits_{u,v,w}~~ &J(u,v)=||u(\cdot,\cdot,t_f)||_{2,\Omega}^2 +2||u(\cdot,\cdot,\cdot)||_{2,\Omega\times T}^2+\frac{1}{500}\sum\limits_{l=1}^L||v_l(\cdot)||^2_{2,T} & \\[10pt] \text{ s.t.} ~~~~ &\frac{\partial u}{\partial t}(x,y,t)- \kappa \Delta u(x,y,t)=\sum\limits_{l=1}^9 v_l(t) f_l(x,y) &\text{ in }&\Omega\times T\\[10pt] & u(x,y,t) =0 &\text{ on } &\partial\Omega\times T \\[10pt] & u(x,y,0) = 100 \sin(\pi x)\sin(\pi y) &\text{ in }& \Omega\\[10pt] & -M w_l(t)\leq v_l(t)\leq M w_l(t) \text{ for all } l\in \{1,\dots,L\} &\text{ in } & T \\[10pt] & \sum\limits_{l=1}^L w_l(t) = W &\text{ in } & T\\[10pt] & w_l(t)\in \{0,1\} \text{ for all } l\in \{1,\dots,L\} &\text{ in } &T. \end{array}$

Parameters

We define the source term for all locations Failed to parse (unknown function "\math"): l\in \{1,\dots,L\} <\math> and a fix parameter <math>\varepsilon\in \R_+

Failed to parse (unknown function "\math"): f_l(x,y) = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2\pi\varepsilon}}e^{\frac{-((x_l-x)^2+(y_l-y)^2)}{2\varepsilon}} <\math> where <math>(x_l,y_l)

is the coordinate of the mesh point of the $l$th possible actuator location.

The parameters used are:

$\begin{array}{rcl} \Omega &=& [0,1] \times [0,2],\\ L &=& 9, \\ \kappa &=& 0.01,\\ t_f &=&10,\\ W &=& 1. \end{array}$

The parameter $\kappa$ describes the thermal dissipativity of the material in the domain $\Omega$, it may vary in space: $\kappa(x,y)$. The parameter $L$ indicates the number of possible actuator locations. They are distributed as indicated in the picture.
