Simulation of Energy Systems

Modeling and simulation of fluids in large networks is a challenging problem, especially if the simulation is used to provide solutions to optimal control problems or other optimization questions. Our first goal is to be able to simulate this systems in a stable and efficient manner as truely transient systems, considering in particular the underlying network stucture.

MOR for gas networks

Model order reduction of gas networks plays an important role in our research and multiplel projects.
