Abstract

This paper is concerned with an optimal control problem in a bounded-domain \(\varOmega _0\) under the constraint of a wave equation in the whole space. The problem is regularized and then reformulated as an initial-boundary value problem of the wave equation in a bounded domain \(\varOmega \supset {\overline{\varOmega }}_0\) coupled with a set of boundary integral equations on \(\partial \varOmega \) taking account of wave propagation through the boundary. The well-posedness and stability of the reformulated problem are proved. A fully discrete finite element method is proposed for solving the reformulated problem. In particular, the wave equation in the bounded domain is discretized by an averaged central difference method in time, and the boundary integral equations are discretized in time by using the convolution quadrature generated by the second-order backward difference formula. The finite and boundary element methods are used for spatial discretization of the wave equation and the boundary integral equations, respectively. The stability and convergence of the numerical method are also proved. Finally, the spatial and temporal convergence rates are validated numerically in 2D.
