Exact/approximate controllability of thermoelastic plates with variable thermal coefficients
Matthias Eller, Roberto Triggiani · Discrete and Continuous Dynamical Systems · 2001
We study a controllability problem (exact in the mechanical variables {$w,w_t$} and, simultaneously, approximate in the thermal variable $\theta$) of thermoelastic plates by means of boundary controls, in the clamped/Dirichlet B.C. case, when the 'thermal expansion' term is variable in space.
