Efficient Model Reduction for the Control of Large-Scale Systems

  • Chapter
  • First Online:

Abstract

When analyzing and controlling large-scale systems, it is extremely important to develop efficient modeling processes. The key dynamic elements must be identified and spurious dynamic elements eliminated. This allows the controls engineer to implement the optimal control strategy for the problem at hand. Model reduction techniques provide an extremely effective way to address this requirement.
