Boundary null controllability of weakly coupled structurally damped beams

Julian Edward, Yacouba Simpore

We prove boundary null controllability in any positive time for a finite system of Euler--Bernoulli beams with possibly non-diagonalizable coupling. For , a Fourier--Jordan…

Boundary null-controllability for the beam equation with classical structural damping

Sergei Avdonin, Julian Edward

Let be the Dirichlet Laplacian on the interval , and let . We prove a well-posedness results for the structurally damped beam equation $$u_{tt}+Δ^2 u-ρΔu_t=0, x\in…

An inverse problem on a metric graph with cycle

Sergei Avdonin, Julian Edward

Consider a quantum graph consisting of a ring with two attached edges, and assume Kirchhoff-Neumann conditions hold at the internal vertices. Associated to this graph is a Schrödin…
