Model order reduction for nonlinear systems
Department of Mathematics, Thesis, (1999)Abstract
Thesis (S.M.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Mathematics, 1999., Includes bibliographical references (p. 69-70)., This thesis presents some practical methods for doing model order reduction for a general type of nonlinear systems. Based on quadratic or even higher degree approximation and tensor reduction with assistance of Arnoldi type projection, we demonstrate a much better accuracy for the reduced nonlinear system to capture the original behavior than the traditional linearization method., by Yong Chen., S.M.
