Resumen

Hyperelasticity is the appropriate mathematical theory to model the dynamics of soft robots. In this work, we state and solve two specific optimal control problems in hyperelasticity. We prove existence of optimal solutions both in a deterministic and in a discrete framework for uncertainty in material properties. We also report on some fine numerical simulations.
