Abstract

AbstractA finite element method is given for the problem of exact control of a linear parabolic equation. The basis functions consist of piecewise bicubic polynomials and the differential equation is satisfied at Gaussian collocation points within each element. The overdetermined system of equations obtained is solved by the method of least squares, and a convergence argument is given for the complete procedure. Numerical results are given for two problems of boundary control.
