Model Formulation

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_2}(t) &=& \ \ k \cdot \frac{n_1(t) \ \cdot \ n_2(t)}{m_{tot}} 
\end{array}

Reaction velocity constant:


 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}

Optimum Experimental Design Problem


\begin{array}{cll}
 \displaystyle \min_{x, G, F, u} && trace(F^{-1} (t_{t_f})) \\[1.5ex]
 \mbox{s.t.} \\
 \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_2}(t) & = & \ \ k \cdot \frac{n_1(t) \ \cdot \ n_2(t)}{m_{tot}}, \\
 \\
 \dot{h}(t) & = & \frac{n_3(t) \ \cdot \ M_3}{m_{tot}} \ \cdot \ 100 \\
 \\
 0 & = & g(x(t_o),x(t_f),p) \\
 0 & \ge &  c(x,u,p), \forall \, t \in I\\
 0 & = & h(x,u,p), \forall \, t \in I \\
 x & \in & \mathcal{X},\,u \in \mathcal{U},\, p \in P.
\end{array}
