Carleman estimates for some anisotropicelasticity systems and applications
Victor Isakov · Evolution equations and control theory · 2012
We show that under some conditions one can obtain Carleman type estimates for the transversely isotropic elasticity system with residual stress. We consider both time dependent and static cases.The main idea is to reduce this system to a principally upper triangular one and the main technical tool is Carleman estimates with two large parameters for general second order partial differential operators.
