MISCELLANEOUS

- can take into account equality or inequality constraints.

- use a full non-linear Saint-Venant's model.

- time to compute the reference trajectories on ASCE canal 2 for 12 hours : from 30 minutes to 2 hours depending on the number of active constraints. FB, state estimation, parameters estimation described in the thesis but not fully tested yet.
