On the Nonuniqueness of Balanced Nonlinear Realizations
نویسندگان
چکیده
The notion of balanced realizations for nonlinear state space model reduction problems was first introduced by Scherpen in 1993. Analogous to the linear case, the so called singular valuefunctions of a system describe the relative importance of each state component from an input-output point of view. In this paper it is shown that the procedure for nonlinear balancing has some interesting ambiguities that do not occur in the linear case. Specifically, it appears that the singular value functions as currently defined are dependent on a particular factorization of the observability function. It is shown by example that in a fixed coordinate frame this factorization is not unique, and thus other distinct sets of the singular value functions and balanced realizations are possible.

Computing balanced realizations for nonlinear systems
In 1993, Scherpen generalized the balanced truncation method to the nonlinear setting. However, the Scherpen procedure is not easily computable and has not yet been applied in practice. We offer methods, tools, and algorithms for computing the energy functions and coordinate transformations involved in the Scherpen theory and procedure for nonlinear balancing. We then apply our approach to deri...

متن کاملCombination Resonance of Nonlinear Rotating Balanced Shafts Subjected to Periodic Axial Load
Dynamic behavior of a circular shaft with geometrical nonlinearity and constant spin, subjected to periodic axial load is investigated. The case of parametric combination resonance is studied. Extension of shaft center line is the source of nonlinearity. The shaft has gyroscopic effect and rotary inertia but shear deformation is neglected. The equations of motion are derived by extended Hamilto...
