Model-Reduction Techniques for Control, Communication and Circuits. Model reduction is an important area of study in the analysis and design of dynamical systems. Its objective is to obtain a low-order model given a high-order system model such that the low-order model closely approximates the input-output behaviour of the original high-order system. Although theory and application of model reduction is well developed, there are many unresolved issues such as efficient model reduction techniq ....Model-Reduction Techniques for Control, Communication and Circuits. Model reduction is an important area of study in the analysis and design of dynamical systems. Its objective is to obtain a low-order model given a high-order system model such that the low-order model closely approximates the input-output behaviour of the original high-order system. Although theory and application of model reduction is well developed, there are many unresolved issues such as efficient model reduction techniques for large-scale circuit simulation and communication applications, frequency-weighted model reduction techniques for controller-design applications, and error bounds for the reduction techniques. The project aims to address these issues.Read moreRead less

Australia has one of the largest exclusive economic zones in the world, and it is vitally important for Australia to understand and benefit from the oceans. This project will give new perspectives in developing underwater acoustic communications that are important for marine industries and scientific research in areas such as the exploration and exploitation of offshore oil and gas, and ocean environment and climate monitoring. This project will lift the international profile of Australia in underwater acoustic communications research and, through the training of early career researchers and PhD students, this project will also develop a skills base for Australia in underwater acoustic communications.Read moreRead less
