To explore the recursive characteristics of a running-in attractor, recurrence plot (RP) and recursive parameters are used to investigate the dynamic features of the structure. The running-in attractor is constructed based on friction noise signals generated from the ring-on-disk wear experiments. The RPs of the running-in attractor are then reproduced in a two-dimensional space. Recursive parameters, recurrence rate (RR), entropy (ENTR), and trend of recurrence (RT) are calculated. Results show that the RP evolves from a disrupted pattern to a homogeneous pattern and then returns to a disrupted pattern in the entire wear process, corresponding to the “formation–stabilization–disappearance” stage of the running-in attractor. The RR and ENTR of the running-in attractor sharply increase at first, remain steady, and then sharply decrease. Moreover, the inclination of RT in the normal wear process is smaller than those in the other two processes. This observation reveals that the running-in attractor exhibits high stability and complexity. This finding may contribute to the running-in state identification, process prediction, and control.

Insight Into

Much of the literature, policies, programs, and investment has been made on mental health, case management, and suicide prevention of veterans. The Australian “veteran community is facing a suicide epidemic for the reasons that are extremely complex and beyond the scope of those currently dealing with them.” (Menz, D: 2019). Only limited work has considered the digital transformation of loosely and manual-based historical records and no enablement of Artificial Intelligence (A.I) and machine learning to suicide risk prediction and control for serving military members and veterans to date. This paper presents issues and challenges in suicide prevention and management of veterans, from the standing of policymakers to stakeholders, campaigners of veteran suicide prevention, science and big data, and an opportunity for the digital transformation of case management.

Is death the “enemy” to be avoided at all costs or is it to be faced, engendering liberation and rebirth? Contemporary suicidology concerns itself with the “causes” of suicide, placing great emphasis on prediction and control However, when the “meaning” of suicide is studied, understanding it as a human phenomenon becomes of major concern. Part of this understanding requires one to view “dread” as implying the possibility of making one's existence one's own, rather than something that must be prevented. In the study of suicide, revolutionary insights can emerge if less emphasis is placed on death as the “enemy” and more attention is placed on “dread” as a potential liberator.

Diffusion Prediction

Finding the building blocks of real-world networks contributes to the understanding of their formation process and related dynamical processes, which is related to prediction and control tasks. We explore different types of social networks, demonstrating high structural variability, and aim to extract and see their minimal building blocks, which are able to reproduce supergraph structural and dynamical properties, so as to be appropriate for diffusion prediction for the whole graph on the base of its small subgraph. For this purpose, we determine topological and functional formal criteria and explore sampling techniques. Using the method that provides the best correspondence to both criteria, we explore the building blocks of interest networks. The best sampling method allows one to extract subgraphs of optimal 30 nodes, which reproduce path lengths, clustering, and degree particularities of an initial graph. The extracted subgraphs are different for the considered interest networks, and provide interesting material for the global dynamics exploration on the mesoscale base.
