Abstract:

Fractal growth is a kind of allometric growth, and the allometric scaling exponents can be employed to describe growing fractal phenomena such as cities. The spatial features of the regular fractals can be characterized by fractal dimension. However, for the real systems with statistical fractality, it is incomplete to measure the structure of scaling invariance only by fractal dimension. Sometimes, we need to know the ratio of different dimensions rather than the fractal dimensions themselves. A fractal-dimension ratio can make an allometric scaling exponent (ASE).

Abstract:

Intensive research on fractals began around 1980 and many new discoveries have been made. However, the connection between fractals, tilings and reptiles has not been thoroughly explored. This paper shows that a method, similar to that used to construct irregular tilings in ℜ2 can be employed to construct fractal tilings. Five main methods, including methods in Escher style paintings and the Conway criterion are used to create the fractal tilings. Also an algorithm is presented to generate fractal reptiles. These methods provide a more geometric way to understand fractal tilings and fractal rep

The boundaries of central place models proved to be fractal lines, which compose fractal texture of central place networks. However, the fractal texture cannot be verified by empirical analyses based on observed data.

The spatial structure of classic central place models bears Euclidean dimension [Formula: see text] rather than fractal dimensions [Formula: see text].

Abstract:

We derive the formulas for neighborhood volume (Minkowski volume in d-dimensions) for fractals which have a curvature bias and are thus bounded. Both local surface fractal dimension and local mass fractal dimension are included as well as a radius of the neighborhood volume comparable with the size of the fractal. We consider two types of the neighborhood volumes: simplified and generalized, as well as the volumes below and above the fractal boundary. The formulas derived are generalizations of the equations for isotropic unbounded fractals. Based on the simplified-volume concept, we establish

Abstract:

Many porous catalysts have a fractal surface, but only rarely do they have a fractal volume, the main exceptions being extremely porous aerogels. It has been suggested that a fractal shape of their volume would be ideal, because it has an infinite area per unit mass that is easily accessible by the reactants. This paper investigates the efficiency of mass fractals by comparing them with nonfractal catalysts. It is found that the specific surface areas of comparable nonfractal catalysts are of the same order of magnitude, if not higher than those of mass fractals. Despite the high effectiveness

In his fascinating book Wonders of Numbers, Clifford Pickover introduces the Ana sequence and fractal, two self-referential constructions arising from the use of language. This paper answers Pickover's questions on the relative composition of sequence terms and the dimension of the fractal. In the process, it introduces a novel way of obtaining fractals from iterative set operations. Also, it presents a beautiful variant of the Ana constructions involving the golden ratio. In conclusion, it suggests ways of constructing similar fractals for the Morse-Thue and "Look and Say" sequences.

The general relationship between fractional calculus and fractals is explored. Based on prior investigations dealing with random fractal processes, the fractal dimension of the function is shown to be a linear function of the order of fractional integro-differentiation. Emphasis is placed on the proper application of fractional calculus to the function of the random fractal, as opposed to the trail. For fractional Brownian motion, the basic relations between the spectral decay exponent, Hurst exponent, fractal dimension of the function and the trail, and the order of the fractional integro-dif

Fractals are important for studying the physics of water transport in soils. Many authors have assumed a mass fractal structure while others consider a fractal surface approach. Each model needs comparisons on the same data set in terms of goodness-of-fit and physical interpretation of parameters. In this note, it is shown, with some representative data sets, that a pore-solid interface fractal model could fit soil water retention data better than a mass fractal model. In addition to the interfacial fractal dimension, this model predicts the tension at dryness. This value is very close to 106

Much is known in the analysis of a finitely ramified self-similar fractal when the fractal has a harmonic structure: a Dirichlet form which respects the self-similarity of a fractal. What is still an open question is when such a structure exists in general. In this paper, we introduce two fractals, the fractalina and the pillow, and compute their resistance scaling factor. This is the factor which dictates how the Dirichlet form scales with the self-similarity of the fractal. By knowing this factor one can compute the harmonic structure on the fractal.

The movement of the fractal Brownian particle in isotropic and homogeneous two-dimensional assembling fractal spaces is studied by the standard diffusion equation on fractals, and we find that particle movement belongs to the anomalous diffusion.

Thus different models exhibiting SOC result in relaxation clusters or avalanches whose geometrical characteristics could be described by fractals. On the other hand, there exist several models for fractal growth phenomena, such as viscous fingering, invasion percolation, dielectric breakdown, etc., and it is possible that the concept of SOC m

In this paper, we discuss the fractal dimensions of the Sierpiński pedal triangles and the related area ratio problem, and provide some computer-generated graphs of the fractals.

Free form techniques and fractals are complementary tools for modeling respectively man-made objects and complex irregular shapes.

Abstract:

Localization of optical excitations in fractal metal nanocomposites, such as colloidal aggregates, self-affine and semicontinuous films, results in strong enhancements of optical nonlinearities. The localized modes of fractals cover a broad spectral range, from the visible to the far-infrared. Results of both theoretical and experimental studies of enhanced nonlinear optical responses of fractal nanostructures are considered.

Abstract:

In the authors' laboratory, fern-like fractals have been cultured in polymer electrolyte membranes of polyethylene oxide (PEO) doped with ammonium iodide (NH4I). The simulation study was then carried out utilizing the Diffusion Limited Aggregation (DLA) based on random motion of aggregating particles modelling technique. The fractal dimension values and the forms of the simulated fractals are comparable to those observed in the PEO polymer membranes. These indicate that the simulation using the DLA model done in this study has resulted outputs that are in abidance with the original fractals cu

Abstract:

The influence of fractal geometry on superconductivity has been studied for layered superconductors. Superconducting multilayers consisting of alternating Nb and Cu layers with fractal stacking sequence and fractal dimension Df=0.63 including the two limiting cases Df= 0 (single superconducting film) and Df=1 (periodic multilayers) were prepared by electron-beam evaporation in ultrahigh vacuum. The layers of Nb and Cu were put down alternately via computer control of the target shutter. The structure of the samples has been checked with in situ reflection high-energy electron diffraction (RHEE

Abstract:

Pharmacokinetics (PK) has been traditionally dealt with under the homogeneity assumption. However, biological systems are nowadays comprehensively understood as being inherently fractal. Specifically, the microenvironments where drug molecules interact with membrane interfaces, metabolic enzymes or pharmacological receptors, are unanimously recognized as unstirred, space-restricted, heterogeneous and geometrically fractal. Therefore, classical Fickean diffusion and the notion of the compartment as a homogeneous kinetic space must be revisited. Diffusion in fractal spaces has been studied for a

Abstract:

Time series of financial data are both frequent and important in everyday practice. Numerous applications are based, for example, on time series of asset prices or market indices. In this article, the application of fractal interpolation functions in modelling financial time series is examined. Our motivation stems from the fact that financial time series often present fluctuations or abrupt changes which the fractal interpolants can inherently model. The results indicate that the use of fractal interpolation in financial applications is promising.

Abstract:

Fractal analysis allows for a mathematical comparison of climatic changes obtained from a variety of observations and recorded at different time scales. Analysis of the oxygen isotope curve of Pacific core V28–239 indicated fractal geometry of the oxygen isotope record for time scales 5000 to 2000000 years, with a fractal dimension of 1.22. On a time scale of some hundred years, tree ring index values yield an average fractal dimension of 1.32±0.02. For annual precipitation records from between 1817 and 1963 at nine major cities in the United States, a mean fractal dimension of 1.26±0.03 was f

Abstract:

<p>For complex targets, the non rigid vibration of an aircraft as well as its attitude changes and the rotation of its rotating parts will induce complex nonlinear modulation on its echo from low-resolution radars. If one performs the fractal analysis of measures on an aircraft echo, it may offer a fine description of the dynamic characteristics which induce the echo structure. On basis of introducing self-affine fractal theory, the paper models real recorded aircraft echo data from a low-resolution radar using the self-affine fractal representation, and investigates the application of e

Abstract:

We describe new families of random fractals, referred to as "V-variable", which are intermediate between the notions of deterministic and of standard random fractals. The parameter V describes the degree of "variability": at each magnification level any V-variable fractals has at most V key "forms" or "shapes". V-variable random fractals have the surprising property that they can be computed using a forward process. More precisely, a version of the usual Random Iteration Algorithm, operating on sets (or measures) rather than points, can be used to sample each family. To present this theory, we

Abstract:

In recent years, fractal geometries have been explored in various branches of science and engineering. In antenna engineering several of these geometries have been studied due to their purported potential of realizing multi-resonant antennas. Although due to the complex nature of fractals most of these previous studies were experimental, there have been some analytical investigations on the performance of the antennas using them. One such analytical attempt was aimed at quantitatively relating fractal dimension with antenna characteristics within a single fractal set. It is however desirable t
