Towards nonlinear delay-based control for convection-like distributed systems: The example of water flow control in open channel systems
Résumé
In this paper, the driving idea is to use a possible approximation of partial differential equations with boundary control by ordinary differential equations with time-varying delayed input, for a control purpose. This results in the development of a specific nonlinear control methodology for such delayed input systems. The case of water flow control in open channel systems is used as a motivating and illustrative example, with corresponding simulation results.
