Abstract:

In this paper, a quasi-generalized singular perturbation technique (quasi-GSP), which is a newly developed model-order reduction method, is applied to the F16-aircraft flight model. This method combines the best features of two well-known model-order reduction techniques  namely, the balanced truncation (BT) and the balanced residulization (BR) techniques. It preserves the matching capability of BT at high frequencies and the matching capability of BR at low frequencies to a certain degree, according to a parameter chosen in the model-order reduction process. By using the frequency and the step responses of the aircraft model to be considered, this double matching property of the quasi-GSP method is illustrated, and its effectiveness compared with other methods is explained in terms of analysis and design problems.
