Abstract

We study an optimization problem for the linearized evolution equations of the Oldroyd model of motion of a viscoelastic medium. The equations are given in a bounded three-dimensional domain. The velocity distribution at the initial time is used as a control function. The objective functional is terminal. The existence of a unique optimal control is proved for a given set of admissible controls. A variational inequality characterizing the optimal control is derived.
