We address the hyperbolic system of partial differential equations, known as the Saint-Venant-Exner system, which describes the behavior of water flow and sediment transport. By applying a priori estimation techniques and reformulating the problem as an optimal control problem, we construct a minimizing control law, via the adjoint method. This control law ensures the stability of the system and minimizes sediment deposition. In addition, a finite volume scheme is implemented to numerically solve both the direct system (SVE) and its adjoint system. Numerical simulations are provided for illustration.
