ABSTRACT
This paper presents an integrated design process for optomechanical structures based on multidisciplinary optimization. The proposed integrated optimal design process comprises a finite element analysis by ANSYS Workbench, the MATLAB optomechanical transfer program, an optical analysis by ZEMAX, and the multidisciplinary optimization solver by Isight. In ANSYS Workbench, the deformation of optical surfaces, structures, and responses according to the design requirements is calculated in one project. Then, Zernike polynomial coefficients are calculated from surface deformation data of optical surfaces through a MATLAB optomechanical transfer program. In ZEMAX, the Zernike polynomial coefficients are imported into optical surface models of an optical system; then, optical performance parameters, such as the wavefront error, optical aberration, MTF, and OPD, are calculated. In the Isight environment, automatic iterative computations are performed between these three programs and, as a result, the design dimensions of optomechanical structures are determined, satisfying the design requirements and improving the performance of an optical system. By using this integrated optimal design process, the optimal design and analysis for a complete optomechanical structure, as well as individual structure parts, can be performed successfully. In this paper, the optimal design problem for three parts of a Cassegrain telescope, which consists of a primary mirror with an outer diameter of 156 mm and a secondary mirror with an outer diameter of 46 mm, was taken as an example. By using optimal parts, the image wavefront error of the Cassegrain telescope was decreased from 29.9 to 16.1 nm.
ABSTRACT
Dual-target-directed 1,3-diphenylurea derivatives were designed by hybridizing BACE 1 inhibitor 1 with metal chelator LR-90. A database consisted of 1,3-diphenylurea derivatives was built and screened by the pharmacophore model (Hypo 1) of BACE 1 inhibitor. Based on the predicted results, 11 compounds (6a-d, 9a-g) with favorable Fitvalues were selected, synthesized and evaluated for their BACE 1 inhibitory activities, which showed that the predicted results were in good agreement with the experimental values. Besides, the synthesized compounds also displayed the ability to chelate metal ions. The most effective BACE 1 inhibitor 9f (27.85+/-2.46 micromol/L) was selected for further receptor-binding studies, the result of which indicated that an essential hydrogen bonds was formed between the urea group of 9f and the catalytic aspartate Asp228.
