Flood control of the Demer by using Model Pbkp_redictive Control

Abstract:

It is shown how Model Pbkp_redictive Control can be used for flood control of river systems modelled with real data. A linear model for the Demer, a river in Belgium, is derived, which is used inside the optimisation problem solved by the controller. This optimisation problem is formulated such that the controller can be used for set-point and flood control. A Kalman filter is used as a state estimator. Closed loop simulations performed with a full hydrodynamic model of the Demer in combination with historical rainfall data show that the proposed control scheme outperforms the current control strategy. © 2013 Elsevier Ltd.
