Description: Orr-Sommerfeld Operator for Couette Flow

This benchmark models Orr-Sommerfeld Operator for a Couette flow. More details can be found in and , .

Origin

This benchmark is part of the SLICOT Benchmark Examples for Model Reduction.

Data

The system matrix $A$ is available from the SLICOT benchmarks page: Orr-Som.zip and is stored as MATLAB .mat file.

Note that the data file only contains an $A$ matrix! For $B = C^\intercal$ any normalized vector $B^\intercal B = 1$, can be chosen.

Dimensions

System structure:

$\begin{array}{rcl} \dot{x}(t) &=& Ax(t) + Bu(t) \\ y(t) &=& Cx(t) \end{array}$

System dimensions:

$A \in \mathbb{R}^{100 \times 100}$, $B \in \mathbb{R}^{100 \times 1}$, $C \in \mathbb{R}^{1 \times 100}$.
