Synthesis, Density functional theory (DFT), Urease inhibition and antimicrobial activities of 5-aryl thiophenes bearing sulphonylacetamide moieties
No full textA variety of novel 5-aryl thiophenes 4a-g containing sulphonylacetamide (sulfacetamide) groups were synthesized in appreciable yields via Pd[0] Suzuki cross coupling reactions. The structures of these newly synthesized compounds were determined using spectral data and elemental analysis. Density functional theory (DFT) studies were performed using the B3LYP/6-31G (d, p) basis set to gain insight into their structural properties. Frontier molecular orbital (FMOs) analysis of all compounds 4a-g was computed at the same level of theory to get an idea about their kinetic stability. The molecular electrostatic potential (MEP) mapping over the entire stabilized geometries of the molecules indicated the reactive sites. First hyperpolarizability analysis (nonlinear optical response) were simulated at the B3LYP/6-31G (d, p) level of theory as well. The compounds were further evaluated for their promising antibacterial and anti-urease activities. In this case, the antibacterial activities were estimated by the agar well diffusion method, whereas the anti-urease activities of these compounds were determined using the indophenol method by quantifying the evolved ammonia produced. The results revealed that all the sulfacetamide derivatives displayed antibacterial activity against Bacillus subtiles, Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Shigella dysenteriae, Salmonella typhae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa at various concentrations. Furthermore, the compound 4gN-((5-(4-chlorophenyl)thiophen-2-yl)sulfonyl) acetamide showed excellent urease inhibition with percentage inhibition activity similar to 46.23 +/- 0.11 at 15 mu g/mL with IC50 17.1 mu g/mL. Moreover, some other compounds 4a-f also exhibited very good inhibition against urease enzyme
Synthesis of N-(6-Arylbenzo[d]thiazole-2-acetamide derivatives and their biological activities: An experimental and computational approach
No full textA new series of N-(6-arylbenzo[d]thiazol-2-yl)acetamides were synthesized by C-C coupling methodology in the presence of Pd(0) using various aryl boronic pinacol ester/acids. The newly synthesized compounds were evaluated for various biological activities like antioxidant, haemolytic, antibacterial and urease inhibition. In bioassays these compounds were found to have moderate to good activities. Among the tested biological activities screened these compounds displayed the most significant activity for urease inhibition. In urease inhibition, all compounds were found more active than the standard used. The compound N-(6-(p-tolyl)benzo[d]thiazol-2-yl)acetamide was found to be the most active. To understand this urease inhibition, molecular docking studies were performed. The in silico studies showed that these acetamide derivatives bind to the non-metallic active site of the urease enzyme. Structure-activity studies revealed that H-bonding of compounds with the enzyme is important for its inhibition
Stability Analysis and Controller Synthesis for Networked Control Systems
No full textIn recent years, Networked Control Systems (NCSs) are recognized as a new research frontier in the advanced control engineering, theory and applications due to various advantages such as higher reliability, more flexibility, design modularity, and easier deployment and maintenance. An NCS refers to a system controlled remotely by a digital controller over a wired or wireless network. Networks can be either dedicated such as control area network (CAN), or shared such as Internet. In the NCSs, system components such as plant, sensor, controller and actuator are spatially distributed over the networks and each component represents a network node. Several design constraints have also emerged due to insertion of networks and distributed system components. Recently, two research approaches, 1) scheduling algorithms, and 2) control designs, are used to cater for the constraints in the NCSs. The scheduling algorithm approach is used to reduce the effect of network-induced constraints on the system performance, whereas control design approach covers novel control methodologies that compensate for the inherited constraints. In this thesis, control design approach is investigated to improve quality of control in the NCSs. It requires identification and modelling of the constraints before their incorporation in the system designs. Therefore, the potential constraints, induced by a network, are identified with a detailed literature survey and by a comparison of two sampling mechanisms: 1) time triggered (TT), and 2) event triggered (ET). Both mechanisms are compared through qualitative analysis and simulations, and effect of these mechanisms is analyzed on the system performance. The constraints identified in this research include: 1) time delays, 2) packet dropouts, 3) quantization error, and 4) limited bandwidth. Time delays that cause performance degradation and system instability are mostly time varying or random in shared networks. In this thesis, time delays are considered as stochastic processes, which follow a finite state Markov chain. The transitions in the Markov chain take values from a transition probability matrix obtained by performing experiments on a cellular network. Packet dropouts that adversely affect the system performance can be single or successive. This work presents the modelling of single and successive packet dropouts using Bernoulli random distribution and Poisson distribution, respectively. In the NCSs, networks and controllers are digital which require quantization of data before transmission of data from sensor to controller over a network. Quantization process not only adds up quantization error in the system design, but is also useful in the NCSs designs as an information coder. In this thesis, both characteristics of the quantizers are investigated. Firstly, a sector bound approach is used to bound the quantization error and robust state and output feedback controllers are proposed to mitigate its effect. In case of multiple quantizers, errors are bounded by the sector bound approach and are represented as poly-topic uncertainties. Secondly, an adaptive quantizer is proposed to explore its advantages as an information coder. The quantizer adapts its quantization densities according to network load conditions, hence is used to adjust data rate. Since components are directly connected in classic control systems, bandwidth is therefore infinite, whereas components are spatially distributed in the NCSs, bandwidth is therefore limited. To cater for this issue, robust state and output feedback controllers are proposed with a novel congestion control mechanism. In this mechanism, data is transmitted when required which helps in the optimization of bandwidth utilization. In addition to congestion control mechanism, this work also investigates ET sampling mechanism to optimize the bandwidth consumption. Various NCSs frameworks are considered which incorporate one or more constraints. For each framework, the constraints are properly modelled before proposing stability criterion and control design. This thesis proposes detailed Lyapunov-Krasovskii (L-K) functionals to obtain new sufficient conditions for the stability of NCSs. On the basis of stability criteria, state of the art control laws are proposed in terms of bilinear matrix inequalities (BMIs). Furthermore, an iterative cone complementarity algorithm is suggested to convert the BMIs into quasi-convex linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). Numerical values of the proposed controllers are obtained by solving the LMIs with the help of MATLAB based LMI and YALMIP toolboxes. Simulation examples, performed using Simulink and Simulink based toolbox TrueTime, elaborate the effectiveness of the proposed designs. Simulation results are also used to analyze the effects of the NCSs constraint on system stability, H∞ performance, and bandwidth utilization
Nano-modification in digital manufacturing of cementitious composites
No full textRemarkable attention from both academia and industry has been attracted to extrusion-based 3D concrete printing (3DCP) during the last decade. Many companies in the Netherlands, e.g., Royal BAM Group, CyBe, Twente Additive Manufacturing, and Bruil, are attempting to implement this technology in practice. 3DCP is the focused digital concrete manufacturing technique in this study. The development of printable cementitious composites is possibly the most critical aspect in 3DCP. Compared to mold-cast concrete process, several essential material parameters need to be controlled in 3DCP process, i.e., pumpability, extrudability, buildability, and others. Conventional materials technology appears to have limited resources to offer for further enhancing the capabilities of 3D printing. Therefore, there is a dire need for adopting non-conventional materials solutions for which nanomaterials can play a vital role. Controlling the rheology is the key to successful 3DCP, as achieving dimensional stability and the minimum required mechanical properties in green state are the main challenges. Furthermore, achieving a required strength development rate and enabling smart monitoring of the 3DCP are the other goals that are desired in designing such materials. Recent research shows that successful modification of cementitious materials can be achieved by incorporating nanomaterials in the materials design for the enhanced fresh and hardened state properties. In this chapter, a summary of these developments is compiled in the light of potential applications, safety issues, and technological challenges.Green Open Access added to TU Delft Institutional Repository 'You share, we take care!' - Taverne project https://www.openaccess.nl/en/you-share-we-take-care Otherwise as indicated in the copyright section: the publisher is the copyright holder of this work and the author uses the Dutch legislation to make this work public.Materials and Environmen
