Thereby, the lower level computes the minimum-stint-time Powertrain Operation (PO) for a given battery energy budget and stint length, whilst the upper level leverages that information to jointly optimize the stint length, charge time and number of pit stops, in order to maximize the driven distance in the course of a fixed-time endurance race.

This paper presents a convex optimization framework to compute the minimum-lap-time control strategies of all-wheel drive (AWD) battery electric race cars, accounting for the grip limitations of the individual tyres.
