Abstract:
 
 The aim of this paper is to study the asymptotic behaviour
 (homogenization) of an optimal control problem in a periodically
 perforated domain with Dirichlet condition on the boundary of the
 holes. The optimal control problem considered here is governed by
 the Stokes system.  The holes are assumed to be of the same order
 as that of the period. The homogenized limit of the Stokes system
 as well as its adjoint system arising from the optimal control
 problem is obtained. The convergence of the optimal control and
 cost functional is obtained on some specific control sets.
