In every problems we consider a main control (leader) and two secondary controls (followers). To each leader we obtain a correnponding Nash equilibrium, associated to a bi-objective optimal control problem; then we look for a leader of minimal cost that solves the exact controllability problem. For the parabolic problems we have distributed and boundary controls, now in the hyperbolics every controls are distributed. We consider linear and semilinear cases, which we solve using observability inequality obtained combining right Carleman inequalities. Also we use a xed point method. / Nesta tese apresentamos resultados sobre controlabilidade exata de Equações Diferenciais Parciais (EDPs) dos tipos parabólico e hiperbólico, no contexto de controle hierárquico, usando a estratégia de Stackelberg-Nash. Em todos os problemas consideramos um controle principal (líder) e dois controles secundários (seguidores). Para cada líder obtemos um equil íbrio de Nash correspondente, associado a um problema de controle ótimo bi-objetivo; então buscamos o líder de custo que resolve o problema de controlabilidade. Para os problemas parabólicos temos controles distribuídos e na fronteira, já nos hiperbólico todos os controles são distribuídos. Consideramos casos lineares e semilineares, os quais resolvemos usando desigualdade de observabilidade obtidas combinando desigualdades de Carleman adequadas. Também usamos um método de ponto xo.

Les interactions entre les processus de surface et de sub-surface sont des composantes clés du cycle hydrologique que les modèles hydrologiques doivent représenter pour obtenir des prédictions cohérentes et précises dans un contexte de gestion durable de la ressource en eau. Les modèles hydrologiques intégrés qui décrivent de façon physique les processus et leurs interactions sont de conception récente. La plupart de ces modèles s‘appuient sur l’équation de Richards 3D pour décrire les processus d’écoulement souterrain. Cette approche peut être problématique compte tenu de contraintes importantes sur le maillage et sur la résolution numérique. Ce travail de thèse propose un modèle hydrologique intégré qui s’appuie sur approche innovante à dimension réduite pour simplifier les écoulements de surface et souterrains d'un bassin versant. Les différents compartiments du modèle sont d’abord testés indépendamment puis couplés. Les résultats montrent que l’approche proposée décrit précisément les processus hydrologiques considérés tout en améliorant de façon significative l’efficacité générale du modèle. / Interactions between surface and subsurface flow processes are key components of the hydrological water cycle. Accounting for these interactions in hydrological modelsis mandatory to provide relevant and accurate predictions for water quality and water resources management. Fully-integrated hydrological models that describe with aphysical meaning the hydrological processes and their interactions are recent. Most of these models rely upon the resolution of a 3D Richards equation to describe subsurface flow processes. This approach may become intractable because of the heavy constrains on both meshing and numerical resolution. This PhD proposes a new integrated hydrological model on the idea of dealing with dimensionally reduced flow in both the surface and sub-surface compartments of a watershed. The different compartments of the model are first tested independently and then coupled. The results show that the proposed approach allows for a proper and precise depiction ofthe hydrological processes enclosed in the model while providing significant gain incomputational efficiency.

Viele Problemstellungen der Naturwissenschaften führen zur Betrachtung von nichtlinearen Wellengleichungen. Dabei ist von großem Interesse, ob zu vorgegebenen kleinen Daten Lösungen eindeutig existieren und ob diese stetig von den Daten abhängen. Hilfsmittel für diese Probleme sind Aussagen über lineare Wellengleichungen. In der vorliegenden Arbeit werden lineare Klein-Gordon Gleichungen, also Wellengleichungen mit Potentialterm, mit zeitabhängiger Masse bzgl. des Verhaltens ihrer Lösungen untersucht. Von speziellem Interesse sind Resultate mit Bezug auf verallgemeinerte Energieerhaltung und sogenannte Lp – Lq decay-Abschätzungen. Aus der Arbeit geht hervor, dass man eine Klassifizierung für Gleichungen mit fallendem Masseterm finden kann. Für Gleichungen vom Wellentyp ist der Einfluss des Potentialterms gering und die Lösungen verhalten sich wie Lösungen der Wellengleichung. Dem gegenüber stehen Gleichungen vom Klein-Gordon-Typ mit erkennbarem Einfluss des Masseterms. Ausgangspunkt für die Klassifizierung ist das kritische Verhalten der Lösungen einer skaleninvarianten Gleichung mit speziellem Masseterm.

In this thesis we look at acoustic wave propagation under water. We look in particular at waves generated by a point source and what happens with the propagation when we model the bottom as flat or as curvilinear. We assume the source to be working at a certain frequency and therefore we model this problem by solving the Helmholtz equation. Since Helmholtz equation has some unwanted numerical properties we are interested in finding new numerical methods that could accelerate the solver. In this thesis we use the Waveholtz iteration, which solves Helmholtz equation by connecting it to the time-dependent wave equation. We use finite differences and the SBP-SAT method to approximate the spatial problem numerically and for modelling the sea bottom we use curvilinear coordinates.  To compare the Waveholtz iteration we also solve Helmholtz equation with a naive solver. The naive solver consists of approximating the equation with finite differences and then solving the linear system of equation by some iterative solver, which for our tests will be GMRES. The results show that the Waveholtz iteration converges in less iterations than our naive solver. It also shows that the number of iterations stays unchanged when changing our discretization, which otherwise is a big problem for our naive solver. This allows us to increase the accuracy of our numerical solution without changing the computation time too much.  We show that the number of iterations increases according to theory for an increasing frequency, and that for open problems we even see a smaller increase. For certain resonant frequencies in Helmholtz equation we do not expect the Waveholtz iteration to converge. In the neighbourhood of these frequencies the convergence becomes slow and we need many iterations for a solution of a certain accuracy. By reformulating the Waveholtz iteration as a Krylov solution we can see that resonances in Helmholtz equation have a smaller impact of the convergence. / I detta examensarbete undersöker vi akustisk vågutbredning i vatten. Vi kollar specifikt på vågor som genereras av en punktkälla och vad som sker när vi modellerar botten som plan eller som kurvlinjär. Då vi antar att punktkällan arbetar vid en bestämd frekvens, kommer vi modellera det fysikaliska problemet genom att lösa Helmholtz ekvation. Helmholtz ekvation har dock några numeriska egenskaper som är oönskade, och därför finns ett intresse av att hitta nya numeriska metoder som löser ekvationen. I detta examensarbete undersöker vi Waveholtz iteration, som löser Helmholtz ekvation genom att koppla den till den tidsberoende vågekvationen. Vi använder finita differenser och SBP-SAT metoden för att approximera det rumsliga problemet numeriskt. För att ge en detaljerad beskrivning av botten använder vi kurvlinjära koordinater. För att jämföra Waveholtz iterationen med något löser vi även Helmholtz med hjälp av en naiv lösare. Den naiva lösaren består av att approximera problemet med finita differenser och sedan lösa det linjära systemet rakt av med en iterativ lösare (vilket för våra fall kommer vara GMRES). Resultatet visar att Waveholtz iteration konvergerar på ett lägre antal iterationer än vår naiva lösare. Det visar även att antalet iterationer inte förändras när vi ändrar diskretisering, vilket annars är ett problem för vår naiva lösare. Detta innebär att vi kan få en högre noggrannhet utan att förlänga beräkningstiden alltför mycket.  Vi visar även att antalet iterationer ökar som förväntat med en ökad frekvens, samt att för öppna problem så ökar antalet iteration mindre än enligt teorin. Vid vissa resonanta frekvenser i Helmholtz ekvation förväntar vi oss att Waveholtz iteration inte kommer konvergerar. I närheten av dessa frekvenser blir konvergensen långsam och vi behöver många iterationer för att lösa problemet. Genom att formulera Waveholtz iteration som en Krylov lösning kommer resonanser i Helmholtz ekvation ge en mindre negativ effekt på konvergensen än om den är formulerad som en fixpunkts iteration.

A control metric, the weighted sum of spatial gradients (WSSG), has been developed for use in active structural acoustic control (ASAC). Previous development of WSSG [1] showed that it was an effective control metric on simply supported plates, while being simpler to measure than other control metrics, such as volume velocity. The purpose of the current work is to demonstrate that the previous research can be generalized to plates with a wider variety of boundary conditions and on less ideal plates. Two classes of plates have been considered: clamped flat plates, and ribbed plates. On clamped flat plates an analytical model has been developed for use in WSSG that assumes the mode shapes are the product of clamped-clamped beam mode shapes. The boundary condition specific weights for use in WSSG have been derived from this formulation and provide a relatively uniform measurement field, as in the case of the simply supported plate. Using this control metric, control of radiated sound power has been simulated. The results show that WSSG provides comparable control to volume velocity on the clamped plate. Results also show, through random placement of the sensors on the plate, that similar control can be achieved regardless of sensor location. This demonstrates that WSSG is an effective control metric on a variety of boundary conditions. Ribbed plates were considered because of their wide use in aircraft and ships. In this case, a finite-element model of the plate has been used to obtain the displacement field on the plate under a variety of boundary conditions. Due to the discretized model involved, a numerical, as opposed to analytical, formulation for WSSG has been developed. Simulations using this model show that ASAC can be performed effectively on ribbed plates. In particular WSSG was found to perform comparable to or better than volume velocity on all boundary conditions examined. The sensor insensitivity property was found to hold within each section (divided by the ribs) of the plate, a slightly modified form of the flat plate insensitivity property where the plates have been shown to be relatively insensitive to sensor location over the entire surface of the plate. Improved control at natural frequencies can be achieved by applying a second control force. This confirms that ASAC is a viable option for the control of radiated sound power on non-ideal physical systems similar to ribbed plates.
