This semester, we modernized our department website’s educational section by migrating from procedural PHP to Laravel framework. The transition was motivated by the need for improved maintainability, security and scalability. The implementation follows the Model-View-Controller (MVC) architectural pattern, enabling efficient data management, Read more

This semester, we took on the challenge of modernizing part of the UIAM Information System – specifically, the Projects module. The original system was built using plain procedural PHP. It didn’t follow any structured architecture – code for logic, layout, and Read more

Chemical hazard assessment relies heavily on accurate PBMT data—Persistence, Bioaccumulation, Mobility, and Toxicity. Yet, these critical parameters often exist across fragmented databases, making comprehensive evaluations challenging. Our semester project addressed this gap by developing an automated, integrated PBMT data pipeline Read more

The aim of this work is to design and implement a predictive model for an alkylation process based on available measurements in order to replace a faulty sensor. This can help minimize the need for laboratory measurements. Alkylation is one Read more

The original communication setup between the control system and the PLC of the UOP3 distillation column was based on a basic HTTP server running directly on the PLC. While simple to implement, this solution suffered from limited speed, low flexibility, Read more

The original registration system for the Student Science Conference was built using procedural PHP. While functional, it lacks structure, flexibility, and scalability. It can only be managed by a single person, making maintenance and collaboration difficult. The goal of my Read more

The aim of this project was to improve energy efficiency and control precision using modern identification and control strategies. In particular, the project compared a traditional modeling method (Strejc model) with a data-driven approach (Koopman model), and applied Model Predictive Read more

Polypropylene Plant 3 (PP3) is the third polypropylene production unit at Slovnaft. The PP3 unit processes propylene, a by-product of refining processes, to produce isotactic polypropylene granules. These granules are a versatile thermoplastic polymer widely used across various industries, including Read more

With the increasing accessibility of smart technologies, automation is no longer limited to residential spaces.
