Abstract

This paper presents a structure-preserving model reduction approach applicable to large-scale, nonlinear port-Hamiltonian systems. Structure preservation in the reduction step ensures the retention of port-Hamiltonian structure which, in turn, assures the stability and passivity of the reduced model. Our analysis provides a priori error bounds for both state variables and outputs. Three techniques are considered for constructing bases needed for the reduction: one that utilizes proper orthogonal decompositions; one that utilizes \( \mathcal{H}2/\mathcal{H}{\infty} \)-derived optimized bases; and one that is a mixture of the two. The complexity of evaluating the reduced nonlinear term is managed efficiently using a modification of the discrete empirical interpolation method (DEIM) that also preserves port-Hamiltonian structure. The efficiency and accuracy of this model reduction framework are illustrated with two examples: a nonlinear ladder network and a tethered Toda lattice.
