Abstract
We study the exact controllability of a fluid-structure model. The fluctuations of velocity and pressure in the fluid are described by a potential, and the structure is a membrane located in a part $\Gamma_s$ of the boundary of the domain $\Omega$. The potential $\phi$ and the transverse displacement z satisfy a coupled system of two wave equations, one in the domain $\Omega\times (0,T)$, the other one in the boundary $\Gamma_s\times (0,T)$. Taking two boundary controls, the first one in a boundary condition satisfied by the potential, and the second one in a boundary condition of the structure equation, we identify the space of controllable initial conditions when the geometrical controllability conditions are satisfied. As in the case of the so-called Helmholtz fluid-structure model [10], the difficulty in the treatement of the observability inequalities, in the definition of very weak solutions, and in the proof of controllability result, comes from the coupling terms of the system. To overcome these difficulties, we show that the variant introduced in [10] of the classical Hilbert Uniqueness Method can be adapted to the aeroacoustic model we consider.

What is OpenURL?

The OpenURL standard is a protocol for transmission of metadata describing the resource that you wish to access. An OpenURL link contains article metadata and directs it to the OpenURL server of your choice. The OpenURL server can provide access to the resource and also offer complementary services (specific search engine, export of references...). The OpenURL link can be generated by different means.
  • If your librarian has set up your subscription with an OpenURL resolver, OpenURL links appear automatically on the abstract pages.
  • You can define your own OpenURL resolver with your EDPS Account. In this case your choice will be given priority over that of your library.
  • You can use an add-on for your browser (Firefox or I.E.) to display OpenURL links on a page (see http://www.openly.com/openurlref/). You should disable this module if you wish to use the OpenURL server that you or your library have defined.
