Erika Plšičík Pavlovičová is a PhD student at the Faculty of Chemical and Food Technology of the Slovak University of Technology in Bratislava, where she is based at the Institute of Information Engineering, Automation, and Mathematics in the study program of Process Control. Her research focuses primarily on model predictive control (MPC), in particular on tube-based MPC concepts and their efficient implementation. In addition, she works on the development of tunable MPC algorithms, which enable flexible adaptation between computational complexity and control performance in real time. Finally, she also addresses offset-free approaches, which ensure the elimination of steady-state control errors in the presence of disturbances and uncertainties.
