Description
In this work we investigate a tool for optimizing the amount of water necessary for an efficient irrigation. In particular, we propose an optimal control approach for suitably handling top boundary conditions in Richards' equation, in a 1D spatial domain. The minimization problem of the given objective functional aims at optimizing the root water uptake term while minimizing the amount of water provided in the irrigation process.
