In general, model reduction techniques fall into two categories — moment —matching and Krylov techniques and balancing techniques. The present contribution is concerned with the former. The present contribution proposes the use of a perturbative representation as an alternative to the bilinear representation [4]. While for weakly nonlinear systems, either approximation is satisfactory, it will be seen that the perturbative method has several advantages over the bilinear representation. In this contribution, an improved reduction method is proposed. Illustrative examples are chosen, and the errors obtained from the different reduction strategies will be compared.
