This paper treats a water flow regularization problem by means of local boundary conditions for the two-dimensional viscous shallow water equations. Using an a-priori energy estimate of the perturbation state and the Faedo–Galerkin method, we build a stabilizing boundary feedback control law for the volumetric flow in a finite time that is prescribed by the solvability of the associated Cauchy problem. We iterate the same approach to build by cascade a stabilizing feedback control law for infinite time. Thanks to a positive arbitrary time-dependent stabilization function, the control law provides an exponential decay of the energy.

This paper studies fishery strategies in lakes, seas, and shallow rivers subject to agricultural and industrial pollution. The flowing pollutants are modeled by a nonlinear differential equation in a general manner. The logistic growth model for the fish population is modified to cover the pollution impact on the fish growth rate. We start by presenting the stability analysis of the dynamical system to discern the different types of the evolution of the fish population according to human actions. A cooperative game is formulated to design strategies for preserving the fish population by controlling the pollution as well as the fish stock for harvesting. The sufficient conditions for implementing the cooperative strategy are investigated through an incentive design approach with an adaptive taxation policy for the players. Numerical results are presented to illustrate the benefit of the cooperative for fish population preservation but also for the players’ rewards.

We consider an unconditional fully discrete finite element scheme for a nematic liquid crystal flow with different kinematic transport properties. We prove that the scheme converges towards a unique critical point of the elastic energy subject to the finite element subspace, when the number of time steps go to infinity while the time step and mesh size are fixed. A Lojasiewicz type inequality, which is the key for getting the time asymptotic convergence of the whole sequence furnished by the numerical scheme, is also derived.
