Implementation of the 2 PID controller for transparent online tuning by Sitaraman Anand Shankar.

“…The Conventional Control Structure (CCS) does not facilitate transparent online tuning - the ability to independently manipulate the three important attributes of a control loop which are the set-point tracking performance, disturbance-rejection performance and loop robustness, since in the CCS the three performance criteria are closely related to each other and by performing online tuning they are affected simultaneously causing one (or) more to deviate from the desired value. Hence, this dissertation studies and implements an alternate control structure to the Conventional Control Structure (CCS) known as the Parallel Control Structure (PCS) which will facilitate transparent online tuning so that the performance criteria are achieved under ideal and non-ideal conditions.…”

Functional amyloids in Pseudomonas aeruginosa may be involved in the sequestration of the quorum sensing molecules HHQ and PQS under high shear conditions. by Sia, Wan Rong.

“…These signalling molecules regulate the formation of biofilm and production of virulence factors, hence playing a role in its pathogenicity. We hypothesize that P.aeruginosa express amyloid-like fimbrae, Fap, to bind to these molecules to prevent their loss into the environment. …”
