Exact boundary controllability of the linear advection equation

Pages 121-129 | Received 22 Jul 2008, Accepted 03 Nov 2008, Published online: 21 May 2009
 

Abstract

An exact controllability result for the linear advection equation in the space is proved for sufficiently large time T > 0, where X is a compact set with and as the smooth and disjoint inflow and outflow boundaries, respectively. The advection is governed by a smooth vector field giving rise to dynamics which advects material from Γ i to Γ o in time T 0.
