EV powertrain controller for max acceleration performance PMSM

Add a pair of drag slicks and you're breaking gears and axles.

In an EV, acceleration is not a problem. Traction is.

Even the little Bolt EV can be quite annoying by breaking the tires loose from a standstill when you're aggressively pulling into traffic.

As far as your academic research, YOU, not the Internet, are supposed to do the heavy lifting and find your own research papers.

If you don't learn how now, you will be worthless when you try to get a day job.

Hello!
I'm looking to design and simulate a simple but efficient powertrain controller for a PMSM, aimed only to achieve the max performance on the acceleration event. It's a field out of my comfort zone, but regardless this being only for educational purposes, I would like to idealize and design a competitive solution aimed only for maximizing the acceleration. My initial idea is a controller including a closed-loop control of MTPA (maximum torque per ampere) combined with flux weakening control. All in addiction with a PID controller to minimize time reaction. Furthermore, I thought it could be beneficial if i switch from an open-loop control to a closed-loop control after reaching 20% of the nominal velocity.
What are your thoughts on that?
Any suggestions or documentation that you could provide about the topic?
Sometimes I think I didn't choose the best department in college for my education. For several years I wanted to become a chef and study cooking in college. I enjoyed exploring different types of food https://samplius.com/free-essay-examples/different-types-of-food/ coming up with healthy and tasty recipes. But on the advice of my father, I still chose the Faculty of Engineering. And despite the fact that the tasks are quite interesting, they are too difficult for me. Hopefully I can find some advice on this forum as I'm almost out of ideas.
Thank you!
