Summary: Friction signals are analyzed under different working conditions through phase trajectories and recurrence plots to identify wear states in the Friction System (FS). The phase trajectory moves within a limited space without exceeding the critical range, while the recurrence plots represent different wear states. Chaotic parameters, such as correlation dimension D, recurrence degree RR, and the proposed saturation radius rs, are used to study the boundedness, stability, and dynamics. The evolution of rs shows a pattern of decrease-stability-increase, while D and RR exhibit the opposite trend. Therefore, using chaotic representation methods to describe complex friction behavior and exploring boundedness, stability, and dynamic characteristics is significant for state identification, wear prediction, and quantitative design control.

Summary: Proper understanding of rainfall variability is crucial for meteorological and hydrological modelling. This study found that there is chaos in UK rainfall data, with varying complexity in rainfall dynamics across different regions. The analysis also revealed marked long-term variability in rainfall dynamics in Western and Northern Scotland.

Summary: This article provides a detailed analysis and numerical investigation of KR flow derived from MHD equations, focusing on complex behaviors and symmetry. The study shows the profound impact of symmetry on chaotic dynamical systems and examines the relation between the KR chaotic attractor with symmetry and its projected image without symmetry. Additionally, the study evaluates the chaotic behavior of KR flow through Lyapunov spectrum and boundedness, along with the critical role of energy in generating KR flow wings.

Summary: The study demonstrates the complexity and variability associated with Hong Kong's rainfall data, with the existence of chaos recognized across various stations. Furthermore, the relationship between rainfall dynamics and temporal scales was examined, revealing that rainfall dynamics at finer resolution are less complex and have less pronounced variability compared to those at coarser resolution.

Summary: This paper studies the dynamic features of friction coefficient during running-in state using recurrence analysis to recognize the running-in state of crankshaft journal bearings. The results show different patterns in recurrence plots during the running-in process and the evolution of phase trajectory in unthreshold recurrence plots, with three independent measures used to characterize the friction coefficient.

Summary: The chaotic nature of many meteorological systems limits its predictability, and accurate prediction of meteorological variables relies on diagnosing the complex underlying dynamics properly. The study shows that wind speed exhibits a higher level of complexity in its underlying dynamics compared to pressure and temperature, leading to more irregular time-dependent behavior and lower predictability. Additionally, seasonal variability in the dynamics of meteorological time series is evident, especially for wind speed and temperature.

Summary: This study used nonlinear methods to investigate the activity state and dynamics characteristic changes of pulse in different trimesters of healthy pregnant women. The results showed significant differences in pulse characteristics among the three trimesters, with the second trimester showing the most significant changes. Nonlinear methods can be used to qualitatively and quantitatively describe the changes in pulse during pregnancy, revealing important characteristics of biological signals.

Summary: This paper studies the chemotaxis system of two-species with two chemicals and logistic sources. It shows that for the attraction-repulsion case, the global boundedness of solutions can be ensured with mu(1), mu(2) > 0. While for the attraction-attraction case, the global boundedness of solutions requires small sensitivity coefficients chi(1), chi(2) or large logistic coefficients mu(1), mu(2).

Summary: The main goal of this study is to analyze the runoff series using a topological approach and determine if chaos exists. Traditional dynamic and metric approaches were tested initially, and the results indicate the presence of chaos. The application of the topological approach using recurrence plot and recurrence quantification analysis further strengthens the hypothesis of deterministic chaos in the runoff series.

Summary: This study extends the concept of nonlinear dynamic analysis to identify and characterize the dynamic structures hidden in wind speed fluctuation, demonstrating that wind speed time series may exhibit chaotic behavior. Different types of wind events (monsoons, tropical cyclones, thunderstorms) have distinct dynamic characteristics, and site-to-site variability in wind speed dynamics is evident.

Summary: The objective difficulty coefficient of alpine skiing competition courses was determined based on course geometry and kinematic parameters of the run by monitoring skiers during the FIS World Cup. The downhill style runs had the highest difficulty coefficient of 1.20, while the super giant and giant slalom had comparable values of 1.13-1.14, and the slalom had the lowest coefficient at 0.97. These coefficients can be used to estimate the degree of risk associated with different sections of a course.

Summary: Chaotic invariant and recurrence quantification analysis measures were used to characterize the fully developed gas-solid flow in horizontal pneumatic conveying of plastic pellets. These measures describe the complexity in phase spaces (attractors) and recurrence plots, reconstructed from pressure and bottom arc-shaped electrostatic signals to characterize the behavior of flow patterns. Different flow patterns were identified and classified using high-speed video imaging and a flow pattern map and state diagram. Recurrence plots analysis showed different qualitative structures for the identified flow patterns. The correlation between the chaotic invariant and recurrence quantification analysis measures and the state diagram suggests that the fluctuations in pressure and electrostatic sensor signals can classify the flow patterns at different operating conditions. Combining the analysis measures for electrostatic signals can indicate the flow condition in relation to the minimum energy consumption operating conditions.
