Abstract
A new scheme for model order reduction of large-scale second-order systems in time-limited intervals is presented. Time-limited Gramians that are solutions of continuous-time algebraic Lyapunov equations for second-order form systems are introduced. Time-limited second-order balanced truncation procedures with provision of balancing position and velocity Gramians are formulated. Stability conditions for reduced-order models are stated and algorithms that preserve stability in reduced-order models are discussed. Numerical examples are presented to validate the superiority of the proposed scheme compared with the infinite-time Gramians technique for time-limited applications.
