Abstract :
This paper deals with the regulation of irrigation canals. We consider the distributed and nonlinear nature of a single reach delimited by two regulator gates and which can be described by the Saint-Venant equations. By means of a Lyapunov approach we propose a class of locally exponentially stabilizing controllers.
