A brake dynamometer has been modified to accurately study the concentration and size
distribution of wear particles in different testing conditions. The test equipment was a …

Since particle emissions from the internal combustion engine have been reduced during the
last decades impressively, non-exhaust emission sources such as the brake wear particles …

Brake wear emission contributes to an increasingly significant proportion of vehicle-related
particulate matter, but knowledge of its emission features and determining factors is still …

Brake wear particles, as the major component of non-exhaust particulate matter, are known
to have different emissions, depending on the type of brake assembly and the specifications …

The characteristics of brake wear particle (BWP) emissions were investigated under five
driving cycles (WLTP, NEDC, FTP, 3h-LACT, and WLTP-Brake) with a brake dynamometer …

Contributions of exhaust and non-exhaust sources to traffic-related particulate matter (PM)
pollution in the atmosphere are almost identical and the most important non-exhaust source …

Knowing and understanding the parameters influencing the concentration of particles
created by brake wear, as one of the main contributors to non-exhaust emissions from …

Brake wear particle emissions contribute to ambient air pollution. Besides tire wear, road
wear, and dust from resuspension, brake wear has been identified as essential source of …

Until now, a wide range of braking conditions has been applied in non‐exhaust emissions
related studies. This often led to incomparable results and contradictory conclusions …

Brake wear particles are generated through frictional contact between the brake disc or
brake drum and the brake pads. Some of these particles may be released into the …
