Following EuroBrake 2024, the participants were invited to LINK Company in Limburg a. d. Lahn. Great extension building! Impressive new measuring facilities!
Thanks to Roy Link and his wife, to Matthew Link and the entire LINK team for the friendly welcome and the opportunity to exchange ideas!

This year's EuroBrake in Mainz was once again an enriching experience full of insights, innovations and networking opportunities. This year's strategy panel was dedicated to the topic "Impact of big data analysis for the brake industry" and again Jan Münchhoff (Chair EuroBrake) and Georg Ostermeyer (Member EuroBrake Steering Board and Program Development Committee) moderated this event.
Terabytes of unstructured and structured data are generated every day in the brake industry. The rapid development of data science, artificial intelligence and machine learning is overtaking many traditional methods
in research, development, production and consumer products. The well-received presentations by panelists from industry and academia spotlighted the current state and future of DS, ML and AI in research, development, production and consumer products in the brake industry.
The engaging panel discussions made it abundantly clear that AI will be an essential part of brake system development in the near future. The full potential of AI for the braking world is not yet understood.
Participants were (from left):
Georg Ostermeyer (Professor Technische Universität Braunschweig, CTO SiDyS GmbH), Merten Stender (Professor, Chair of Cyber-Physical Systems in Mechanical Engineering, Technische Universität Berlin), Imad Khalek, PhD, FSAE (Institute Engineer (Powertrain Engineering Division), Southwest Research Institute (SwRI)),
Friedrich von Bülow (Predevelopment and Architecture Drive Control (EFBQ/5), Volkswagen), Johannes Henrich Schleifenbaum (Professor, RWTH Aachen University), Torsten Treyde (Technical Director Simulation & NVH,
ZF Group), Andrea Cerutti (Virtual System Engineering, Brembo), Jan Münchhoff (Head of Development Functions Assisted Driving and Parking, Active Safety Audi AG).
EuroBrake 2024 once again offered an in-depth insight into the latest advances in the field of brakes. From inspiring presentations, especially in the technical session "AI usage in brake development", to stimulating keynotes on AI and particle emissions and engaging panel discussions, it was inspiring to see how the brake industry is evolving and tackling key challenges. It was also great that the students and young engineers were once again
given the opportunity to present their work in the form of a poster and discuss it with interested parties as part of the "EuroBrake Student and Young Engineer Opportunities Program". At the end of the conference, the best three posters were awarded prizes after being reviewed by a panel of EuroBrake experts. However, the conference also provided plenty of space for networking activities: the breaks were dominated by high-quality exchanges of
knowledge and experience. There were many opportunities to make new contacts and deepen existing ones. The evening receptions and the fantastic gala dinner deserve special mention.
Georg Ostermeyer gave the invited lecture “Analyzing brake measurement data with data science”. Data Science provides a growing set of very powerful tools that can generate models from data. The talk will give a brief introduction to different areas of Data Science and Artificial Intelligence and will present concrete methods with examples of model generation for brakes.

Prof. Georg Ostermeyer gave a highly acclaimed invited talk on "Analysing Brake Measurement Data with Data Science" at AsiaBrake 2024 in Delhi, India. The talk gave a brief introduction to different areas of Data Science and Artificial Intelligence and presented concrete examples of model generation for brakes with powerful tools. The talk was introduced by Dr. Theo Grigoratos. He is the EU Commission's lead expert on non-exhaust emissions.
At the SAE Brake Colloquium 2023 in San Antonio there was a fantastic tutorial giving a complete overview of Euro 7: "Reducing Road Transport Emissions Beyond Exhaust“.
Many thanks to Imad Khalek, Southwest Research Institute, Matthew Robere, HL Mando, and Carlos Agudelo, Link Engineering Co. for their excellent presentations and valuable contributions, moderated by George Ostermeyer.
Making new contacts and strengthening the existing network was, as always, a pleasure.
Thanks to all for the nice and interesting conversations. We look forward to continuing the discussions and cooperation.

At the Brake Colloquium 2023 in San Antonio, TX, the Session BC100 „Developments and Innovations in Friction Materials and Friction Couples“ was moderated by Adnan Sarfraz, LAPINUS, and Georg Ostermeyer, SiDyS GmbH. Many thanks to Dr.-Ing. Tobias Utsch, Managing Director of
HPL Technologies GmbH, for the excellent presentation.
It was a pleasure to listen to the interesting presentations at the μ-Symposium 2023 in Chemnitz, Germany. In particular, the last presentation on Artificial Intelligence for Friction Brake was a good introduction to the applications and potential, as there is hardly any area that cannot be affected by shifting previous knowledge limits through AI-based approaches. It was also another opportunity to meet many of the global players in the braking world in a fantastic historic location. We look forward to further discussions and collaborations.
