Control of transients in water distribution networks by H<FONT FACE=Symbol>¥</FONT> Control

In this work, a controller for regulating the transients in water distribution networks is established. The control technique is the H<FONT FACE=Symbol>¥</FONT> Control. The developed controller is applied to a water distribution network and the results of this application demonstrate that the technique allowed the establishment of a robust controller, capable of attenuating the disturbances in a suitable way, being effective in controlling the oscillations of the state variables in question.
