Conformational Analogs of Some Phytoactive CompoundsSkelton, Wm. Paul 08 1900 (has links)
In an effort to determine if there is a specific conformational structure which is most effective at the appropriate active physiological site, the synthesis of a group of sterically restricted analogs was undertaken. A portion of the polymethylene carbon skeleton of glutaric acid was replaced by selected aromatic carbons in benzenedicarboxylic acids to produce a series of ridged conformers, and the relative plant growth regulating properties of these derivatives were determined.

The effect of manufacturing and assembling tolerances on the performance of 1-18 GHz Double Ridged Guide Horn antennasJacobs, Bennie 20 May 2011 (has links)
It is known that the 1-18 GHz Double Ridge Guide Horn (DRGH) antenna is highly
sensitive to tolerances in manufacturing. Since a typical DRGH antenna is constructed
from a number of individual parts, tolerances in the machining, even when numerically
controlled, and errors in the assembly can easily lead to gaps between subsections.
Performance deviations, most notably resonances in the boresight gain and VSWR was
observed in a number of manufactured 1-18 GHz DRGH antennas. The exact cause of the
performance deviations had to be determined in order to identify which sections of the
antenna need to be redesigned in such a way that the effects of the manufacturing and
assembling tolerances on the performance of typical mass produced DRGH antennas are
reduced or eliminated. It was hypothesised that gaps most notable in the waveguide
launcher section and especially the coaxial feeding section is the cause of the sharp
resonance effects. This hypothesis was confirmed during the study. A highly accurate
Method of Moments (MoM) numerical model of the 1-18 GHz DRGH antenna was
developed, gaps were then implemented in between various parts of the model and the
results observed. Based on these results a new improved 1-18 GHz DRGH antenna was
designed with reduced sensitivity to manufacturing tolerances and improved performance. / Dit is alombekend dat die 1-18 GHz Dubbel Rif Golfleier Horing (DRGH) antenna baie
sensitief is vir vervaardigings toleransies. 'n Tipiese DRGH antenna bestaan uit verskeie
individuele onderdele. Toleransies in vervaardiging, selfs al word die proses numeries
beheer, kan dus lei tot spasies tussen verskillende dele. Die waarneming van verswakte
werkverrigting, meer spesifiek resonansies in die wins en Spannings Staande Golf
Verhouding (SSGV) by 'n aantal vervaardigde 1-18 GHz DRGH antennes het gelei tot
verdere studie. Om die 1-18 GHz ontwerp minder sensitief te maak ten opsigte van
toleransies, moes die presiese oorsaak van die verswakte werkverrigting bepaal word. Aan
die begin van die studie was die vermoede dat spasies in veral die golfleierlanseerder en
meer spesifiek die koaksiale voer seksie, die oorsaak is van die resonansies. Die hipotese is
in die daaropvolgende ondersoek bevestig. 'n Hoogs akkurate Metode van Momente
(MvM) numeriese model is vir die 1-18 GHz DRGH antenna ontwikkel. Spasies is tussen
verskeie parte van die model ge-inkorporeer en die resultate is ondersoek. 'n Nuwe
verbeterde 1-18 GHz DRGH antenna op die ondersoek gebaseer, is ontwikkel. Die antenna
het verminderde sensitiwiteit ten opsigte van vervaardigings toleransies sowel as
verbeterde werkverrigting. / Dissertation (MEng)--University of Pretoria, 2011. / Electrical, Electronic and Computer Engineering / Unrestricted

Modal-based design techniques for circular quadruple-ridged flared horn antennasBeukman, Theunis Steyn 03 1900 (has links)
Thesis (PhD)--Stellenbosch University, 2015. / ENGLISH ABSTRACT: This dissertation presents modal-based techniques for the effective systematic design of
quadruple-ridged flared horns (QRFHs) as reflector feeds for radio astronomy applications.
A new excitation technique is proposed, consisting of a quadraxial line that terminates in the
quad-ridges through the back lid of the QRFH, which allows for the integration with differential
low-noise amplifiers. An equivalent circuit of this quadraxial feed is presented that allows fast
synthesis of optimal feeding designs for QRFHs. In addition, the quadraxial feeding network
suppresses higher-order modes significantly. The effect of eliminating these unwanted modes
are investigated and the quadraxial feed is shown to outperform the coaxial feed in the known
detrimental aspects of the QRFH – beamwidth narrowing for increased frequency, beamwidth
variation over the upper bandwidth, high cross-polarisation levels, high co-polar sidelobes and
variable phase centre – for the specific QRFH designs.
Ridge-loaded modes are analysed and a large number of cut-off frequencies presented which
are unavailable in literature. The pure-mode excitation of the quadraxial feed allows more
effective control over the modal content in the QRFH. This is exploited in a proposed design
technique where the cut-off frequencies throughout the horn are used to synthesise the ridge
taper profile, in order to achieve the desired modal distribution in the aperture.
The proposed feeding solution is compact and therefore is also attractive for use with cryocoolers,
typically employed with front-end electronics in telescopes for radio astronomy. A
prototype was successfully manufactured and the mechanical implementation of the quadraxial
feed proved to be much more simple than that of the conventional feed – consisting of a coaxial
line realised within the thin ridges. / AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Hierdie proefskrif stel modus gebasseerde tegnieke voor vir die effektiewe sistematiese ontwerp
van viervoud gerifte oopgesperde horings (VGOHs) as weerkaatser voere vir radio astronomie
toepassings.
’n Nuwe voertegniek word voorgestel, wat bestaan uit ’n kwadraksiale lyn wat termineer in
die vier riwwe deur die agterkant van die VGOH, wat die integrasie met differensiële laeruis
versterkers toelaat. ’n Ekwivalente stroombaan van hierdie kwadraksiale voer word aangebied
vir die vinnige sintese van optimale voer ontwerpe vir VGOHs. Boonop onderdruk die kwadraksiale
voer netwerk ook beduidend hoër orde modusse. Die effek van die uitskakeling van
hierdie ongewensde modusse word ondersoek en die kwadraksiale voer oortref die gedrag van
die koaksiale voer in die bekende nadelige aspekte van die VGOH – bundelwydte vernouing
met toenemende frekwensie, bundelwydte variasie oor die boonste bandwydte, hoë kruispolarisasie
vlakke, hoë kopolarisasie sybande en wisselvallige fase senter – vir die spesifieke VGOH
ontwerpe.
Rifgelaaide modusse word geanaliseer en ‘n groot aantal afsnyfrekwensies word aangebied
wat nie beskikbaar is in literatuur nie. Die suiwermodus opwekking van die kwadraksiale voer
bied meer effektiewe beheer oor die modusinhoud in die VGOH. Hierdie aspek word benut in ‘n
voorgestelde tegniek waar die afsnyfrekwensies deur die horing gebruik word om die rif tapsheid
profiel te sintetiseer, sodat die gewensde modale distribusie in die stralingsvlak behaal word.
Die voorgestelde voer oplossing is kompak en daarom ook aantreklik vir die gebruik met
krioverkoelers, wat tipies gebruik word met die voorkant elektronika in teleskope vir radio astronomie.
‘n Prototipe was suksesvol vervaardig en die meganiese implimentasie van die kwadraksiale
voer toon dat dit eenvoudiger is as met die gebruiklike koaksiale voer – wat bestaan uit
‘n koaksiale lyn bewerkstellig binne die dun riwwe.

An optimized dual-polarized quad-ridges horn antenna with pyramidal sidewallsVan der Merwe, Pieter Hugo January 2013 (has links)
It is well known that quad-ridged horn antennas in general have impedance and radiation
characteristics that are significantly worse than that of their double-ridged counterparts.
Normally a voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) of 3 over the operational bandwidth is
used for the design specification of quad-ridged horn antennas. The bandwidth of operation
is severely restricted due to the excitation of higher order modes in the co-axial to
waveguide transition of the antenna. The higher order modes cause a break-up in the
radiation pattern of the antenna and large dips in the boresight gain.
The performance of the quad-ridged horn antenna with pyramidal sidewalls is improved by
separating the antenna into the transition and flared horn sections, and optimizing these
sections individually. It is shown that a transition section with a pyramidal cavity and
steps, and a flared horn section with an exponential profile with a circular segment for the
ridges deliver the best performance. These configurations for the transition and flared horn
sections are combined in the complete antenna. The optimized antenna has a 12.5:1
operational bandwidth with improved performance in terms of the VSWR, the coupling
between the ports and the boresight gain. A prototype of this antenna is manufactured.
Good agreement between the measured and simulated performance is achieved. / Dissertation (MEng)--University of Pretoria, 2013. / gm2014 / Electrical, Electronic and Computer Engineering / unrestricted

A numerical model of the propagation characteristics of multi-layer ridged substrate integrated waveguideAinsworth, Joseph January 2012 (has links)
A transmission line format is presented which takes the form of a Multilayer Ridged Substrate Integrated Waveguide, for which signal energy is transmitted within standard PCB substrates, within a wave-guiding structure formed from conducting tracks in the horizontal plane and arrays of through-plated vias in the vertical plane. The Substrate Integrated Waveguide (SIW) is a recent development into which research is so far concentrated on single-layer rectangular variants which, like traditional rectangular waveguide, are amenable to analytic computation of the cutoff eigenvalues. Recent publications have offered empirically-derived relationships with which a Substrate Integrated Waveguide can be analysed by equivalence of the horizontal dimensions with a conventional waveguide, allowing such structures to be designed with minimal effort. We propose a ridged form of this structure, in which multiple PCB layers are stacked to obtain the desired height and the published equivalent width is used to obtain the horizontal dimensions. The proposed structure combines the increased bandwidth of ridged waveguide with SIW’s greatly reduced cost of manufacture and integration, relative to conventional waveguide, and improved power handling capacity and loss susceptibility relative to microstrip. Ridged variants have not yet been studied in the literature, however, in part because the eigenspectrum can not be obtained analytically. We thus present a semi-analytical software model with which to synthesise and analyse the cutoff spectrum in ridged Substrate Integrated Waveguide, verified by comparison with analytical solutions, where they exist, simulation in finite-element software and a physical prototype. Agreement with simulated and measured results is within 1 % in certain subsets of the parameter space and 11 % generally, and individual results are returned in times of the order of seconds. We use the model to analyse the relationship between geometry and frequency response, constructing an approximating function for the early modes which is significantly faster, such that think it can be used for first-pass optimisation. A range of optimal parameters are presented which maximise bandwidth within anticipated planar geometric constraints, and typical design scenarios are explored.
