Controllability of second order infinite dimensional dynamical systems with delays

Abstract

The article is devoted to analysing the approximate absolute and approximate relative controllability of a given type second order infinite dimensional system. The considered dynamical system is governed by the evolution equation with three damping terms and three terms without derivatives. Following this aim, spectral theory for linear unbounded operators is involved. At first the representation of considered infinite dimensional dynamical system by the infinite series of finite dimensional systems is given. Next, two theorems on necessary and sufficient conditions of approximate absolute and approximate relative controllability of the considered system are formulated and proved. Finally, proven theorems are applied to the analysis of the elastic beam.
