  1. Efficient Simulation of Physical System Models Using Inlined Implicit Runge-Kutta Algorithms Vicha Treeaporn Department of Electrical & Computer Engineering The University of Arizona Tucson, Arizona 85721 U.S.A

  2. Topics • Introduction • Techniques for Simulation • Results • An Application

  3. Introduction • Stiffness • Widely varying eigenvalues • Explicit algorithms • Straightforward to implement • Step size limited by numerical stability • Implicit algorithms • More difficult to implement • Additional computational load • Needed to simulate stiff systems • May use larger step sizes

  4. Inline-Integration • Merges the integration algorithm with the model • Eliminates differential equations • Results in difference equations (∆Es) • Easily implement implicit algorithms • Circuit example inlining Rad3

  5. Simple Circuit

  6. Circuit Equations

  7. Inlined with Rad3 Evaluate at Rad3 time instants Eliminate derivatives Integrator equations

  8. Sorting

  9. Sorting

  10. Sorting

  11. Sorting • 10 equations immediately causalized • Need to perform tearing • Make assumptions about variables being ‘known’

  12. Tearing Tearing variable Residual Eq.

  13. Tearing Residual Eq. #2 Tearing variable #2

  14. Tearing • Completely causalized equations • 2 iteration variables, vc and i1 • Could use this set of equations for simulation • Want step-size control

  15. Step-Size Control • Want larger step sizes • Reduce the overall computational cost • Maintain desired accuracy • Compute error estimate • Embedding method • Shares computations with original method

  16. Step-Size Control • Explicit RKs • Embedding methods have been found • Implicit RKs • Difficult problem • Algorithms are compact • Can find embedding methods using two steps • Linear polynomial approximation

  17. HW-SDIRK Embedding • 3rd-order accurate • Behaves like an explicit method • May unnecessarily restrict step size for stiff systems • Search for an alternate embedding method

  18. Alt. HW-SDIRK Embedding • 3rd-order accurate • Implicit method

  19. Alt. HW-SDIRK Embedding Stability Domain Damping Plots

  20. Lobatto IIIC(6) • No embedding method exists • Expensive to perform step size control • Can search for an embedding method

  21. Lobatto IIIC(6) Embedding Method • 5th-order accurate • A-Stable • Large asymptotic region

  22. Lobatto IIIC(6) Embedding Method Stability Domain Damping Plots

  23. Numerical Experiments

  24. Numerical Experiments • Tested various algorithms with selected benchmark ODEs • Implemented in Dymola/Modelica

  25. ODE Set B Inlined with HWSDIRK and alternate error method ode15s

  26. ODE Set B Error estimate stays near 10-3 Step size grows and shrinks appropriately

  27. ODE Set D Inlined with Lobatto IIIC(6) ode15s
