Abstract

This paper is concerned with the feedback flow control of an open-channel hydraulic system modeled by a diffusive wave equation with delay. Firstly, we put forward a feedback flow control subject to the action of a constant time delay. Thereafter, we invoke semigroup theory to substantiate that the closed-loop system has a unique solution in an energy space. Subsequently, we deal with the eigenvalue problem of the system. More importantly, exponential decay of solutions of the closed-loop system is derived provided that the feedback gain of the control is bounded. Finally, the theoretical findings are validated via a set of numerical results.

Highlights

  • Introduction e dynamics of irrigation canals are often described by nonlinear complex partial differential equations derived from the conservation of mass and momentum

  • Among several models available in the literature, the de Saint-Venant system [1, 2] has been standing at the forefront of the modeling and analysis of irrigation canals for decades. e system consists of two nonlinear coupled hyperbolic partial differential equations: zZ zq zt + zx Ld, (1)

  • An irrigation system has been considered when a constant time delay occurs in the flow control

Summary

Problem Set-Up and Preliminaries

The closed-loop system is formulated as a differential equation in an appropriate functional space. Given a linear operator P on a Hilbert space Y with D(P) Y, if P is dissipative and there is a scalar λ0 such that λ0I − P is onto Y, P generates a C0 semigroup of contractions on Y. Assume that P be a closed densely defined operator on a Hilbert space Y satisfying the following property: there exists η ∈ R such that. A direct consequence of eorem 4 is that the C0-semigroup S(t) of the closed-loop system is not necessarily uniformly bounded for all values of the feedback gain κ > 0 One can explain this property by recalling that the generator A of S(t) is not dissipative for all values of the feedback gain κ > 0, unlike the uncontrolled system whose operator A0 is dissipative and its semigroup is contractive (see Proposition 1)
