英文摘要

      The time optimal control problem is a kind of typical optimal control problem, which has attracted the extensive attention of researchers. Impulsive control has been widely used in engineering control. The convergence of numerical approximations of optimal control problems for the systems governed by partial differential equations provides a qualitative basis for the feasibility of the numerical method. In this paper, the convergence of finite element approximation for the impulsive time optimal control problem of heat equations is studied. By making use of the properties of the projection operator and the error estimates of the system state, we prove that the optimal time of the approximation problem converges to the optimal time of the original problem. Furthermore, the convergence of the optimal control is proved by means of the bang-bang property of the optimal control for the original problem.
