This chapter describes several “success stories” of model order reduction (MOR) in mechanical engineering. First, the reader will be given an overview of specific model representations, MOR requirements, and reduction techniques relevant in the different fields of mechanical engineering. Then, four applications are presented: the reduction of a thermo-mechanical machining tool, the reduction of models of a car body and driver’s seat, the reduction of an elastic crankshaft, and the reduction of a leaf spring model.      «
