Summary
parallel computing. POD is well known for model reduction for different applications. It uses snapshots of the solution at previous time steps to generate a low dimensional approximation space for the solution. Here we focus on the potential of this method in order to decouple a dynamical system into dynamical subsystems split on a multiprocessors architecture. Each processor is in charge of a subsystem in a non-reduced form while it keeps a representation of the other subsystems managed by the other processors under a reduced form. The analysis of the behavior of the error on the decoupling of the dynamical system using the POD, allows us to define a mathematical criterion for updating the basis of the reduced model. Moreover, we enhance a technique to update the POD basis on the fly in order to retrieve most part of dynamics of the solution on the simulation's time interval. Some parallelism results on nonlinear large dynamical systems show the efficiency of wall clock times for the method.
