Modellordnungsreduktion durch Krylow-Unterraum-Methoden
In model order reduction of linear (and recently nonlinear systems), algorithms based on Krylov subspace methods (also known as moment matching and rational interpolation) have gained a wide popularity due to their simplicity, low computational cost and flexibility, making them a predestined candidate in the reduction of truly large-scale models.
In this setting, the moments are defined as the coefficients of the Taylor series expansion of the transfer function around a certain complex frequency. If the reduction is performed using bases of particular Krylov subspaces, then the reduced order model is guaranteed to match specific moments of the full order model. The main advantage of this approach is that it involves only the solution of sparse linear systems of equations and hence results in low computational effort and small memory requirements. The main open problems and thus active fields of research within this family of methods are:
- Guaranteeing preservation of certain properties (such as stability, passivity, ...) of the reduced-order model,
- Obtaining rigorous estimations on the approximation error,
- Finding a suitable parametrization for the reduction procedure, e.g. location of the matching frequencies, reduced order...
- Extending the validity to other system classes (DAEs, bilinear, quadratic bilinear, nonlinear, ...)
In our group, we actively work on all these topics. In particular, our methods can automatically choose suitable reduction parameters (interpolation frequencies, reduced order, ...) to obtain reduced order models of high fidelity (often being optimal with respect to system norms such as H2 and H8) and providing error bounds and/or error indicators.
The algorithms developed at MORLab are included in our MATLAB toolboxes and are free for download.
