Exact/approximate controllability of thermoelastic plates with variable thermal coefficients

Abstract

We study a controllability problem (exact in the mechanical variables {w, wt} and, simultaneously, approximate in the thermal variable θ) of thermoelastic plates by means of boundary controls, in the clamped/Dirichlet B.C. case, when the 'thermal expansion' term is variable in space.
