Transport reversal for model reduction of hyperbolic partial differential equations

Numerical Analysis 2017-01-27 v1

Abstract

Snapshot matrices built from solutions to hyperbolic partial differential equations exhibit slow decay in singular values, whereas fast decay is crucial for the success of projection- based model reduction methods. To overcome this problem, we build on previous work in symmetry reduction [Rowley and Marsden, Physica D (2000), pp. 1-19] and propose an iterative algorithm that decomposes the snapshot matrix into multiple shifting profiles, each with a corresponding speed. Its applicability to typical hyperbolic problems is demonstrated through numerical examples, and other natural extensions that modify the shift operator are considered. Finally, we give a geometric interpretation of the algorithm.
