Abstract: Dimensionality reduction of decision variables is a practical and classic method to reduce the computational burden in linear and Nonlinear Model Predictive Control (NMPC). Available results range from early move-blocking ideas to singular-value decomposition. For schemes more complex than move-blocking it is seemingly not straightforward to guarantee recursive feasibility of the receding-horizon optimization. Decomposing the space of decision variables related to the inputs into active and inactive complements, this paper proposes a general framework for effective feasibility-preserving dimensionality reduction in NMPC. We show how -- independently of the actual choice of the subspaces -- recursive feasibility can be established. Moreover, we propose the use of global sensitivity analysis to construct the active subspace in data-driven fashion based on user-defined criteria. Numerical examples illustrate the efficacy of the proposed scheme. Specifically, for a chemical reactor we obtain a significant reduction by factor 2040 at a closed-loop performance decay of less than 0.05%.
