Abstract:
The aim of this study was to develop trajectory planning that would allow an autonomous racing car to be driven as close as possible to what a driver would do, defining the most appropriate inputs for the current scenario. The search for the optimal trajectory in terms of lap time reduction involves the modeling of all the non-linearities of the vehicle dynamics with the disadvantage of being a time-consuming problem and not being able to be implemented in real-time. However, to improve the vehicle performances, the trajectory needs to be optimized online with the knowledge of the actual vehic

Abstract:
The problem of maneuvering a vehicle through a race course in minimum time requires computation of both longitudinal (brake and throttle) and lateral (steering wheel) control inputs. Unfortunately, solving the resulting nonlinear optimal control problem is typically computationally expensive and infeasible for real-time trajectory planning. This paper presents an iterative algorithm that divides the path generation task into two sequential subproblems that are significantly easier to solve. Given an initial path through the race track, the algorithm runs a forward–backward integration scheme t

Abstract:
Chapter 9 deals with the solution of minimum-time and minimum-fuel vehicular optimal control problems. These problems are posed as fuel usage optimization problems under a time-of-arrival constraint, or minimum-time problems under a fuel usage constraint. The first example considers three variants of a simple fuel usage minimization problem under a time-of-arrival constraint. The first variant is worked out theoretically, and serves to highlight several of the structural features of these problems; the other two more complicated variants are solved numerically.The second example is also a multi-stage fuel usage minimization problem under a timeof- arrival constraint.More complicated track and vehicle models are then employed; the problem is solved numerically. The third problem is a lap time minimization problem taken from Formula One and features a thermoelectric hybrid powertrain. The fourth and final problem is a minimum-time closed-circuit racing problem featuring a racing motorcycle and rider.

Abstract:
A web based VRCC (Virtual Racing Car Championship) application is here presented. The application is intended for educational purposes to teach students a variety of topics of the teaching course “Vehicle Dynamics and Control” in Mechatronics Master Degree Course; the present application forces students to understand the relevant parameters that govern the dynamic performance of racing cars. The application relies on an optimal control library, which is capable of calculating minimum lap times of a racing car on the basis of a comprehensive symbolic description of an open-wheel racing car dyna
