Abstract

Abstract: In this paper we study the approximation of a distributed optimal control problem for linear parabolic PDEs with model order reduction based on Proper Orthogonal Decomposition (POD-MOR). POD-MOR is a Galerkin approach where the basis functions are obtained upon information contained in time snapshots of the parabolic PDE related to given input data. In the present work we show that for POD-MOR in optimal control of parabolic equations it is important to have knowledge about the controlled system at the right time instances. For the determination of the time instances (snapshot locations) we propose an a-posteriori error control concept which is based on a reformulation of the optimality system of the underlying optimal control problem as a second order in time and fourth order in space elliptic system. Finally, we present numerical tests to illustrate our approach and to show the effectiveness of the method in comparison to existing approaches.
