The time-optimal control problem is stated in a path-parametric formulation such that existing reliable numerical methods for real-time nonlinear MPC can be used. Building on previous work on timeoptimal driving, we present an approach based on a sequential quadratic programming type algorithm with online propagation of second order derivatives. As an illustration of our method, we provide closed-loop simulation results based on a vehicle model identified for small-scale electric race cars. date: 2016 date_type: published publisher: IEEE pagerange: 141-147 event_title: European Control Conference event_location: Aalborg, Denmark event_dates: June 29 - July 1, 2016 event_type: conference id_number: doi:10.1109/ECC.2016.7810277 refereed: TRUE isbn: 978-1-5090-2591-6 book_title: 2016 European Control Conference (ECC) official_url: http://doi.org/10.1109/ECC.2016.7810277 citation: Verschueren, Robin and Zanon, Mario and Quirynen, Rien and Diehl, Moritz Time-optimal race car driving using an online exact hessian based nonlinear MPC algorithm.
