“…Nevertheless, few studies have considered the effect of automatic transmission fluid (ATF) temperature on the running-in. Fundamental studies into the ATF temperature effect mainly focused on its influence in the steady-state phrase, like on the tribological behaviour (Wu et al, 2018a(Wu et al, , 2018bXu et al, 2019;Luo et al, 2021), drag torque (Wu et al, 2018a(Wu et al, , 2018bIqbal et al, 2013) and the temperature field of friction components (Lin et al, 2018;Kumar et al, 2002).…”
