Abstract :
This paper presents a case study based on a multivariable model of an experimental four segment irrigation canal. Frequency responses are given for the developed model and a control framework based on static output feedback and the H2 norm is presented. Both the model´s PDEs and the controller optimization requires the use of numerical methods. Examples are given for diagonal and full multivariable PI type controllers.
