LeGresley and Juan J. Alonso Stanford University, Stanford, CA 94305 The use of reduced order models based on Proper Orthogonal Decomposition (POD) has been demonstrated to be of practical use for modeling low-speed aerodynamics. How- ever, the use of such techniques for transonic flows with the presence of shocks has been more limited. This is because the reduced order model will only be able to represent a shock in a given location if one of the snapshots used to build the model has a dis- continuity at that same location. Lucia et. al. proposed domain decomposition as a means of overcoming this limitation. This technique uses a reduced order model over the majority of the computational domain while solving the full governing equations in a small region which would otherwise require an unacceptably high number of snapshots to achieve suffici
