SYSTEM BREAKDOWN

We are going to analyse the biological system in a control perspective way. Our 3 main aims are;

1) Suggesting a realistic model for the system

2) Comparing the wet lab result with our model

3) A standard description of how our overall system intends to work.

MODEL

Lets first look at how our initial system works. The flow diagram below gives a brief description of it;

The above flow chart can be reconstructed into a control block diagram;

The script below shows how each block parameters are designed

Our next step is to simulate the model, which brings about an interesting design practise which my team has employed. Which is how does the photoreceptor works? And how does it affect the system when light varies?

A point to note; each ODE’s tends to a steady state after some time. Therefore we have suggested that:

Each constant varies with amount of light shined on the system and as well achieves a steady state at a certain point.
