Cover Story: The study of wear particle generation, emission, and transport requires a systematic approach based on the application of various technologies and principles such as tribology, mechanics, heat and mass transfer, aerosol science, and materials chemistry. Our proposed correlation between the wear and emission of brake wear particles on 31 different brake assemblies was experimentally validated using a dynamometer test that measures brake wear particles. The correlation between brake wear, disc wear, and wear particle emissions per particle size was also investigated for elements derived from brake pad materials. This systematic investigation provides a promising approach to reducing wear when focusing on brake wear particle emissions as proposed in the Euro 7 regulation. View this paper
