Structure-Preserving Model Reduction for Symmetric Second-Order Systems

We introduce a model reduction approach for linear time-invariant second-order systems based on positive real balanced truncation.
Our method guarantees to preserve passivity of the reduced-order model as well as the positive definiteness of the mass and stiffness matrices and admits an a priori gap metric error bound.
Our construction of the second-order reduced model is based on the consideration of an internal symmetry structure and the invariant zeros of the system and their sign-characteristics for which we derive a normal form.
The results are available in [1].
