Uncertain Dynamical Systems: An Application to River Pollution Control

There is an extensive literature dealing with the modelling and management of water quality systems. However, only a few treatments include the effects of uncertain disturbances, and those are stochastic in nature. In the present treatment, we employ a deterministic approach in dealing with uncertain disturbances. We consider uncertain but bounded disturbances and allow for two possibilities, the bounds are known and the bounds are not known.
