ABSTRACT
This chapter presents some case study. The first case study describes the practical situation in the Delfland area, which includes a large number of polders that drain into a storage basin. The second case study comprises a water system which is part of the De Drie Ambachten area. The third case study involves a hilly and sandy water system in the Salland area. The following modes of control are distinguished in the case studies: local manual, local automatic, dynamic manual, and dynamic automatic. Damage functions have been constructed for the various interests distinguished in the case studies. Switching between local automatic and dynamic automatic control takes place in various examples of the cases described. The moment for switching is determined by simulating the water system in local automatic control mode during the control horizon. The choice of weights and shapes for the damage functions determine the optimum control strategy found in optimization.
