Abstract
Some new and simple Gramian-based model order reduction algorithms are presented on second-order linear dynamical systems, namely, SVD methods. Compared to existing Gramian-based algorithms, that is, balanced truncation methods, they are competitive and more favorable for large-scale systems. Numerical examples show the validity of the algorithms. Error bounds on error systems are discussed. Some observations are given on structures of Gramians of second order linear systems.
