A New Method for Accurate and Efficient Residual Computation in Adaptive Model-Order Reduction

Projection-based model-order reduction is a powerful methodology for solving parameter-dependent linear systems of equations. The efficient computation of the residual norm is of paramount importance in adaptive model reduction schemes because it is heavily used in error indicators and a posteriori error bounds. These guide the adaptive selection of expansion points in multi-point methods and serve as stopping criteria for subspace enrichment. This paper demonstrates that the standard algorithm for fast residual norm computation leads to premature stagnation, and it presents a new approach of improved accuracy.
