"Systems neuroergonomics" (Mau, J. In: R. Wang and X. Pan, editors, Advances in Cognitive Neurodynamics (V), chapter 59, pages 431-437, Springer Science+Business Media, Singapore, 2016) showed a separation of human-body system's functional organization from its cellular material in order to open a holistic perspective that can comprise all body functions. This was achieved with a strictly hierarchical structure in drill-down from system's functional whole to base functional elements. Implied multi-scale functional dynamics with coherent up-scaling were mathematically described in an axiomatic way, but the daily wake/sleep dynamics cover mainly anticipated functional challenges. Here, the theory is expanded to permit "functional learning" in the sense of adjustment of functional capacities to meet higher demand. "Functional aging" as a whole-body frailty is derived from biodynamic entropy that eventually drives the living to meet its inevitable destiny, death. The ages at which frailty begins to dominate can currently be obtained only from official life tables as population averages and are different for men and women, accordingly. The objective is to develop a mathematical theory in medicine from an axiomatic approach to phenomenological biodynamics, in which cognition is viewed as an embodied activity.
“系统神经工效学”（毛，J. 载于：王，R. 和潘，X. 编，《认知神经动力学进展（V）》，第59章，第431 - 437页，施普林格科学 + 商业媒体出版社，新加坡，2016年）展示了人体系统功能组织与其细胞物质的分离，以便开启一个能够涵盖所有身体功能的整体视角。这是通过从系统功能整体到基本功能要素的严格分层结构来实现的。隐含的具有连贯向上扩展的多尺度功能动力学以公理方式进行了数学描述，但日常的清醒/睡眠动力学主要涵盖预期的功能挑战。在此，该理论得到扩展，以允许在根据更高需求调整功能能力意义上的“功能学习”。作为全身虚弱的“功能衰老”源自生物动力学熵，最终驱使生命体走向其不可避免的命运——死亡。目前，虚弱开始占主导地位的年龄只能从官方生命表中获取作为人口平均值，并且男性和女性相应地有所不同。目标是从公理方法到现象学生物动力学发展医学中的数学理论，其中认知被视为一种具身活动。
