The Diels-Alder Reaction is an organic chemical reaction. A conjugated diene and a substituted alkene react and form a substituted cyclohexene system. Stefan Körkel used this model in his PhD thesis to compute optimum experimental designs.


Model Formulation

The reactionkinetics can be modelled by the following differential equation system:

\begin{array}{rcl} \dot{n_1}(t) &=& -k \cdot \frac{n_1(t) \ \cdot \ n_2(t)}{m_{tot}}, \\ & & \\ \dot{n_2}(t) &=& -k \cdot \frac{n_1(t) \ \cdot \ n_2(t)}{m_{tot}}, \\ & & \\ \dot{n_3}(t) &=& \ \ k \cdot \frac{n_1(t) \ \cdot \ n_2(t)}{m_{tot}} \\ & & \\ \dot{n_4}(t) &=& 0 \end{array}

The reaction velocity constant k consists of two parts. One part reflects the non-catalytic and the other the catalytic reaction. The velocity law follows the Arrhenius relation

k = k_1 \ \cdot \ exp(- \frac{E_1}{R} \ \cdot \ (\frac{1}{T(t)} \ - \ \frac{1}{T_{ref}}) ) \ + \ k_{cat} \ \cdot \ c_{cat} \ \cdot \ exp(-\lambda \ \cdot \ t) \ \cdot \ exp( - \frac{E_{cat}}{R} \ \cdot \ (\ \frac{1}{T(t)} \ - \ \frac{1}{T_{ref}}) )

Total mass:

m_{tot} = n_1 \ \cdot \ M_1 \ + \ n_2 \ \cdot \ M_2 \ + \ n_3 \ \cdot \ M_3 \ + \ n_4 \ \cdot \ M_4

Temperature in Kelvin:

T(t) = \vartheta (t) + 273

The ODE system is summarized to:

\begin{array}{rcl} \dot{x}(t) &=& f(x(t), u(t), p) \end{array}

Constraints

The control variables are constrained with respect to the mass of sample weights (initial mass):


\begin{array}{cll} 0.1 & \le & n_{a1} \ \cdot \ M_1 \ + \ n_{a2} \ \cdot \ M_2 \ + \ n_{a4} \ \cdot \ M_4 \le 10 \end{array}

and to the mass of active ingredient content (fraction of active substances):

\begin{array}{cll} 0.1 & \le & \frac{ n_{a1} \ \cdot \ M_1 \ + \ n_{a2} \ \cdot \ M_2 }{ n_{a1} \ \cdot \ M_1 \ + \ n_{a2} \ \cdot \ M_2 \ + \ n_{a4} \ \cdot \ M_4 } \le 0.7 \end{array}

Optimum Experimental Design Problem

The aim is to compute an optimal experimental design \xi = (q,w) which minimizes the uncertainties of the parameters k_1, k_{cat}, E_1, E_{cat}, \lambda. So, we have to solve the following optimum experimental design problem:


Failed to parse (syntax error): \begin{array}{cll} \displaystyle \min_{x,\ G,\ F,\ Tc,\ n_{a1},\ n_{a2},\ n_{a4},\ c_{kat},\ \vartheta(t)} && trace(F^{-1} (t_{end})) \\[1.5ex] \mbox{s.t.} \\ \dot{x}(t) & = & f(x(t), u(t),p), \\ \\ h(t) & = & \frac{n_3(t) \ \cdot \ M_3}{m_{tot}} \ \cdot \ 100 \\ \\ \dot{G}(t) & = & f_x(x(t),u(t),p)G(t) \ + \ f_p(x(t),u(t),p) \\ \\ \dot{F}(t) & = & w(t) (h_x(x(t),u(t),p)G(t))^T (h_x(x(t),u(t),p)G(t)) \\ \\ 0.1 & \le & n_{a1} \ \cdot \ M_1 \ + \ n_{a2} \ \cdot \ M_2 \ + \ n_{a4} \ \cdot \ M_4 \\ \\ 10 & \ge & n_{a1} \ \cdot \ M_1 \ + \ n_{a2} \ \cdot \ M_2 \ + \ n_{a4} \ \cdot \ M_4 \\ \\ 0.1 & \le & \frac{ n_{a1} \ \cdot \ M_1 \ + \ n_{a2} \ \cdot \ M_2 }{ n_{a1} \ \cdot \ M_1 \ + \ n_{a2} \ \cdot \ M_2 \ + \ n_{a4} \ \cdot \ M_4 } \\ \\ 0.7 & \ge & \frac{ n_{a1} \ \cdot \ M_1 \ + \ n_{a2} \ \cdot \ M_2 }{ n_{a1} \ \cdot \ M_1 \ + \ n_{a2} \ \cdot \ M_2 \ + \ n_{a4} \ \cdot \ M_4 } \\ \\ \vartheta(t) & = & \vartheta_{lo} + 273, \quad \forall \, t \in [t_0,2] \\ \\ \vartheta(t) & = & \vartheta_{lo} + \frac{t-2}{6} ( \vartheta_{up} - \vartheta_{lo} ) + 273 , \quad \forall \, t \in [2,8] \\ \\ \vartheta(t) & = & \vartheta_{up} + 273, \quad \forall \, t \in [8,t_{end}] \\ \\ \vartheta(t) &=& \left\{ \begin{array}{cl} \vartheta_{lo} + 273 & t \in [t_0,2] \\ \vartheta_{lo} + \frac{t-2}{6} ( \vartheta_{up} - \vartheta_{lo} ) + 273 & t \in [2,8] \\ \vartheta_{up} + 273 & t \in [8,t_{end}] \\ \\ & & x \in \mathcal{X},\,u \in \mathcal{U},\, p \in P . \end{array}

Remember, in an optimum experimental design problem the parameters of the model are fixed. But, we minimize the parameter's uncertainties by optimizing over the control variables and functions.
