Description: Model of an Atmospheric Storm Track

This benchmark models the track of an atmospheric storm track. More details can be found in and , .

Origin

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

Data

The system matrices $A$, $B$, $C$ are available from the SLICOT benchmarks page: eady.zip and are stored as MATLAB .mat file.

Here is Python code for loading the matrices ($B$ and $C$ are stored as arrays of 8-bit unsigned integers):

import numpy as np
from scipy.io import loadmat

mat = loadmat('eady.mat')
A = mat['A']
B = mat['B'].astype(np.float64)
C = mat['C'].astype(np.float64)

Dimensions

System structure:

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

System dimensions:

$A\in {\mathbb{ℝ}}^{598\times 598}$, $B\in {\mathbb{ℝ}}^{598\times 1}$, $C\in {\mathbb{ℝ}}^{1\times 598}$.
