Elham Kowsari

I am a researcher in control engineering, optimization, automation, and robotics. My work focuses on control methods for heavy-duty machinery, optimal trajectory planning, model predictive control (MPC),estimation theory, and navigation in GNSS-denied environments. I aim to develop solutions that improve autonomy and efficiency in intelligent machines.

I apply advanced control strategies to real-world problems in mobile robotics and automation. I have experience in academic research, industry collaborations, and interdisciplinary projects.
