Primal-dual active set method for control constrained optimal control of the Stokes equations

Abstract:

In this paper, we study the distributed and boundary optimal control of the Stokes equations in the presence of pointwise control constraints. The analysis of the problems involve existence results, as well as necessary conditions and optimality systems. A primal-dual active set strategy is studied for the numerical solution of the problems. For the distributed case, global and local convergence results for the infinite dimensional method are presented. For the boundary control case, due to the lack of regularity of the pointwise constraint multiplier, the method is applied to a discretized version of the original problem. Finally, some numerical experiments, which illustrate the performance of the method for both cases, are commented.
