Abstract
The proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) based reduced order modeling (ROM) technique for modeling unsteady frequency domain aerodynamics is developed for a large scale computational model of an inviscid flow transonic wing configuration. Using the methodology, it is shown that a computational fluid dynamic (CFD) model with over a three quarters of a million degrees of freedom can be reduced to a system with just a few dozen degrees of freedom, while still retaining the accuracy of the unsteady aerodynamics of the full system representation. Furthermore, POD vectors generated from unsteady flow solution snapshots based on one set of structural mode shapes can be used for different structural mode shapes so long as solution snapshots at the endpoints of the frequency range of interest are included in the overall snapshot ensemble. Thus, the snapshot computation aspect of the method, which is the most computationally expensive part of the procedure, does not have to be fully repeated as different structural configurations are considered.

The GNAT method for nonlinear model reduction: Effective implementation and application to computational fluid dynamics and turbulent flows

TL;DR: Global state-space error bounds are developed that justify the method's design and highlight its advantages in terms of minimizing components of these error bounds and a 'sample mesh' concept is introduced that enables a distributed, computationally efficient implementation of the GNAT method in finite-volume-based computational-fluid-dynamics (CFD) codes.

Nonreflecting boundary conditions for Euler equation calculations

TL;DR: In this paper, a unified theory for the construction of steady-state and unsteady nonreflecting boundary conditions for the Euler equations is presented, which allows calculatios to be performed on truncated domains without the generation of spurious nonphysical reflections at the far-field boundaries.
