Abstract

This chapter is concerned with optimal control problems for the coupled Cahn-Hilliard (CH)/Navier-Stokes (NS) system related to ‘model H’ of Hohenberg and Halperin [20]. It proposes a time discretization allowing suitable energy estimates, that in particular force the total energy to decrease without control action, and it considers distributed aswell as boundary control of the fluid. For nonsmooth potentials, including the double-obstacle potential contained in the associated Ginzburg- Landau energy, a regularization procedure based on a mollified Moreau-Yosida approximation is applied. The resulting regularized problems are discretized by finite elements and solved via a gradient descent method. Several numerical examples document the behavior of the algorithm as well as the controlled CH-NS system for boundary and for distributed control.
