Time-optimal Control Strategies for Electric Race Cars with Different Transmission Technologies [PDF]
This paper presents models and optimization methods to rapidly compute the achievable lap time of a race car equipped with a battery electric powertrain. Specifically, we first derive a quasi-convex model of the electric powertrain, including the battery,

Comparative analysis of forward-facing models vs backward-facing models in powertrain component sizing [PDF]
Powertrain size optimisation based on vehicle class and usage profile is advantageous for reducing emissions. Backward-facing powertrain models, which incorporate scalable powertrain components, have often been used for this purpose.

Powertrain Test Bench System [PDF]
In parallel with major automotive manufacturers, some smaller companies are trying to launch their own electric or hybrid-propulsion models. During the development of these prototypes some tests must be done, namely consumption, autonomy, batteries state-of-charge, gradability, among others.
