In the present paper, we study energy decay and exact boundary controllability for a system of n one-dimensional linear wave equations coupled in parallel.The control obtained is a square integrable of the Neuman type for initial data with finite energy. The controllability time is near optimal value. We treat the case of control in the whole boundary and also in part of it.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
