In this paper, we discuss a reduced-order modeling for the Benjamin-Bona-Mahony-Burgers (BBMB) equation and its application to a distributed feedback control problem through the centroidal Voronoi tessellation (CVT). Spatial distcritization to the BBMB equation is based on the finite element method (FEM) using B-spline functions. To determine the basis elements for the approximating subspaces, we elucidate the CVT approaches to reduced-order bases with snapshots. For the purpose of comparison, a brief review of the proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) is provided and some numerical experiments implemented including full-order approximation, CVT based model, and POD based model. In the end, we apply CVT reduced-order modeling technique to a feedback control problem for the BBMB equation.

A numerical scheme is proposed to control the BBMB (Benjamin-Bona-Mahony-Burgers) equation, and the scheme consists of three steps. Firstly, BBMB equation is converted to a finite set of nonlinear ordinary differential equations by the quadratic B-spline finite element method in spatial. Secondly, the controller is designed based on the linear quadratic regulator (LQR) theory; Finally, the system of the closed loop compensator obtained on the basis of the previous two steps is solved by the backward Euler method. The controlled numerical solutions are obtained for various values of parameters and different initial conditions. Numerical simulations show that the scheme is efficient and feasible.

A quadratic B-spline finite element method for the spatial variable combined with a Newton method for the time variable is proposed to approximate a solution of Benjamin-Bona-Mahony-Burgers (BBMB) equation. Two examples were considered to show the efficiency of the proposed scheme. The numerical solutions obtained for various viscosity were compared with the exact solutions. The numerical results show that the scheme is efficient and feasible.
