Differential equations and systems analysis. Undergraduate controls and/or signal processing course would satisfy this requirement. A graduate-level systems course is also helpful, but not necessary.

Journal of Computational Mathematics, Vol. 29, No. 5 (September 2011), pp. 589-604 (16 pages) An optimal control problem governed by the Stokes equations with L²-norm state constraints is studied.

Precision measurement has been long pursued due to its vital importance in physics and other sciences. Quantum mechanics supplies this task with two new elements. On one hand, quantum mechanics ...
