In the present paper, we present and solve the sliding mode control (SMC) problem for a second-order generalization of the Caginalp phase-field system. This generalization, inspired by the theories developed by Green and Naghdi on one side, and Podio-Guidugli on the other, deals with the concept of thermal displacement, i.e., a primitive with respect to the time of the temperature. Two control laws are considered: the former forces the solution to reach a sliding manifold described by a linear constraint between the temperature and the phase variable; the latter forces the phase variable to reach a prescribed distribution φ∗. We prove existence, uniqueness as well as continuous dependence of the solutions for both problems; two regularity results are also given. We also prove that, under suitable conditions, the solutions reach the sliding manifold within finite time.

Abstract
In the present paper, we present and solve the sliding mode control (SMC) problem for a second-order generalization of the Caginalp phase-field system. This generalization, inspired by the theories developed by Green and Naghdi on one side, and Podio-Guidugli on the other, deals with the concept of thermal displacement, i.e., a primitive with respect to the time of the temperature. Two control laws are considered: the former forces the solution to reach a sliding manifold described by a linear constraint between the temperature and the phase variable; the latter forces the phase variable to reach a prescribed distribution φ∗. We prove existence, uniqueness as well as continuous dependence of the solutions for both problems; two regularity results are also given. We also prove that, under suitable conditions, the solutions reach the sliding manifold within finite time.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
