Interpolation strategy for BT-based parametric MOR of gas pipeline-networks

Abstract

Proceeding from balanced truncation-based parametric reduced order models (BT-pROM) a matrix interpolation strategy is presented that allows the cheap evaluation of reduced order models at new parameter sets. The method extends the framework of model order reduction (MOR) for high-order parameter dependent linear time invariant systems in descriptor form by Geuss (2013) by treating not only permutations and rotations but also distortions of reduced order basis vectors. The applicability of the interpolation strategy and different variants is shown on BT-pROMs for gas transport in pipeline-networks.
