Educational objective

  • Students are familiar with the common model order reduction methods.
  • To be able to expediently choose from different model order reduction methods.
  • To know how to implement the methods in a numerically robust way.
  • To be aware of the effects of model order reduction methods on important system properties.

    Topics

    • Balanced Truncation.
    • Krylov subspace methods.
    • Multi‐point methods: rational Krylov methods, proper orthogonal decomposition, reduced basis method.
    • Parametric model order reduction.
    • Preservation of important system properties, i.e. reciprocity, passivity, causality etc.
