In this paper,we address the existence and asymptotic analysis of higher-dimensional contrast structure of singularly perturbed Dirichlet problem.Based on the existence,an asymptotical analysis of a steplike contrast structure (i.e.,an internal transition layer solution) is studied by the boundary function method via a proposed smooth connection.In the framework of this paper,we propose a first integral condition,under which the existence of a heteroclinic orbit connecting two equilibrium points is ensured in a higher-dimensional fast phase space.Then,the step-like contrast structure is constructed,and the internal transition time is determined.Meanwhile,the uniformly valid asymptotical expansion of such an available step-like contrast structure is obtained.Finally,an example is presented to illustrate the result.
The step-like contrast structure for a class of nonlinear singularly perturbed optimal control problems is considered. The existence of the step-like contrast structure for the singularly perturbed optimal control problem is proved by equivalence, which is based on the necessary conditions. The authors not only give the conditions under which there exists a step-like contrast structure, but also determine where the internal transition time is. Meanwhile, the uniformly valid asymptotic expansion of the step-like contrast structure solution is constructed by the direct scheme method. Finally, an example is presented to show the result.
