Abstract
This paper deals with the optimal control of a coefficient in the modification of Navier-Stokes equations. Namely, the motion of the viscous incompressible fluid for a small gradient of velocity is described by Navier-Stokes equations where the coefficient of the kinematic viscosity ν is the positive constant (ν 0). For a greater gradient of velocity the coefficient of kinematic viscosity is a positive function of the gradient of velocity, that is ν (|∇u|). In our case ν (|∇u|) = ν 0 + ν 1 a (|∇u|) where ν 0, ν 1 ∈ ℝ+. The function a is positive and monotone and it is taken as a control variable. The existence of a solution of the optimal control problem is proved. Further, the approximation of the control problem by the finite-dimensional control problem is performed. The proof of the existence of a solution of that aproximate problem has been brought into light. Finally, the connection between the solution of the control problem and the solution of the approximate control problem is established.
