“…For such type of challenging indirect controllability issues, there is an extensive bibliography devoted to nondegenerate systems. See, in particular [13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23] and the references therein.…”
In this paper, we consider a system of two degenerate wave equations coupled through the velocities, only one of them being controlled. We assume that the coupling parameter is sufficiently small and we focus on null controllability problem. To this aim, using multiplier techniques and careful energy estimates, we first establish an indirect observability estimate for the corresponding adjoint system. Then, by applying the Hilbert Uniqueness Method, we show that the indirect boundary controllability of the original system holds for a sufficiently large time.

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.
