In this work, the simulation and optimization of transport processes through gas and water
supply networks is considered. Those networks mainly consist of pipes as well as other …

We are interested in high-order linear multistep schemes for time discretization of adjoint
equations arising within optimal control problems. First we consider optimal control …

In this paper, we present a low-storage adjoint lattice Boltzmann method (LSALBM) for the
control of unsteady incompressible flows. The core of the method is to adopt a velocity …

Significant changes have affected US natural gas markets in the last several years.
Environmental regulations and price pressures from newly available natural gas supplies …

This work considers nonsmooth optimal control problems and provides two new sufficient
conditions of optimality. The first condition involves the Lagrange multipliers while the …

We present a new aerodynamic design method based on the lattice Boltzmann method
(LBM) and the adjoint approach. The flow field and the adjoint equation are numerically …

The objective of this research is the numerical implementation and comparison between the
performance of the continuous and discrete adjoint Lattice Boltzmann (LB) methods in …

This thesis is devoted to the numerical treatment of optimal control problems governed by
second order hyperbolic partial differential equations. Adaptive finite element methods for …

In the present research, we tried to improve the performance of the lattice Boltzmann (LB)-
based adjoint approach by utilizing the mesoscopic inherent of the LB method. In this …

The control of relaxation-type systems of ordinary differential equations is investigated using
the Hamilton–Jacobi–Bellman equation. Firstly, we recast the model as a singularly …
