Asymptotic analysis of Neumann periodic optimal boundary control problem

Abstract

An optimal boundary control problem in a domain with oscillating boundary has been investigated in this paper. The controls are acting periodically on the oscillating boundary. The controls are applied with suitable scaling parameters. One of the major contribution is the representation of the optimal control using the unfolding operator. We then study the limiting analysis (homogenization) and obtain two limit problems according to the scaling parameters. Another notable observation is that the limit optimal control problem has three controls, namely, a distributed control, a boundary control, and an interface control.
