Exact Null Controllability of a One-Dimensional Wave Equation with a Mixed Boundary

Abstract

In this paper, exact null controllability of one-dimensional wave equations in non-cylindrical domains was discussed. It is different from past papers, as we consider boundary conditions for more complex cases. The wave equations have a mixed Dirichlet–Neumann boundary condition. The control is put on the fixed endpoint with a Neumann boundary condition. By using the Hilbert Uniqueness Method, exact null controllability can be obtained.
