Abstract

We introduce a penalized Neumann boundary control approach for solving an optimal Dirichlet boundary control problem associated with the two- or three-dimensional steady-state Navier--Stokes equations. We prove the convergence of the solutions of the penalized Neumann control problem, the suboptimality of the limit, and the optimality of the limit under further restrictions on the data. We describe the numerical algorithm for solving the penalized Neumann control problem and report some numerical results.
