Abstract:
In this paper, general Mandelbrot and Julia sets of one-parameter rational function families associated with Newton's method were discussed. The bounds of these general Mandelbrot sets and two formulas for calculating the number of different periods periodic points of these rational functions were given. The relations between general Mandelbrot sets and common Mandelbrot sets of zn + c (n ∈ Z, n ≥ 2), along with the relations between general Mandelbrot sets and their corresponding Julia sets were investigated. Consequently, the results were found in the study: there are similarities between the Mandelbrot and Julia sets of one-parameter rational function families associated with Newton's method and the Mandelbrot and Julia sets of zn + c (n ∈ Z, n ≥ 2).

Abstract:
Researchers and scientists are attracted towards Julia and Mandelbrot sets constantly. They analyzed these sets intensively. Researchers have studied the perturbation in Julia and Mandelbrot sets which is due to different types of noises, but transcendental Julia and Mandelbrot sets remained ignored. The purpose of this article is to study the perturbation in transcendental Julia and Mandelbrot sets. Also, we made an attempt to control the perturbation in transcendental sets by using superior iteration method.

Abstract:
Fractals play a vital role in modeling the natural environment. The present aim is to investigate the escape criterion to generate specific fractals such as Julia sets, Mandelbrot sets and Multi-corns via F-iteration using complex functions h(z)=zn+c, h(z)=sin(zn)+c and h(z)=ezn+c, n≥2,c∈C. We observed some beautiful Julia sets, Mandelbrot sets and Multi-corns for n = 2, 3 and 4. We generalize the algorithms of the Julia set and Mandelbrot set to visualize some Julia sets, Mandelbrot sets and Multi-corns. Moreover, we calculate image generation time in seconds at different values of input parameters.

Abstract:
AbstractIn this paper we consider singular perturbations of the quadratic polynomial $F(z) = z^2 + c$ where $c$ is the center of a hyperbolic component of the Mandelbrot set, i.e., rational maps of the form $z^2 + c + \lambda /z^2$. We show that, as $\lambda \rightarrow 0$, the Julia sets of these maps converge in the Hausdorff topology to the filled Julia set of the quadratic map $z^2 + c$. When $c$ lies in a hyperbolic component of the Mandelbrot set but not at its center, the situation is much simpler and the Julia sets do not converge to the filled Julia set of $z^2 + c$.

Abstract:
In this paper we use the same idea as the complex analytic dynamics to study general Mandelbrot sets and Julia sets generated from the complex non-analytic iteration . The definition of the general critical point is given, which is of vital importance to the complex non-analytic dynamics. The general Mandelbrot set is proved to be bounded, axial symmetry by real axis, and have (m+1)-fold rotational symmetry. The stability condition of periodic orbits and the boundary curve of stability region of one-cycle are given. And the general Mandelbrot sets are constructed by the escape-time method and the periodic scanning algorithm, which present a better understanding of the structure of the Mandelbrot sets. The filled-in Julia sets Km,c have m-fold structures. Similar to the complex analytic dynamics, the general Mandelbrot sets are kinds of mathematical dictionary or atlas that map out the behavior of the filled-in Julia sets for different values of c.

Abstract:
The article presents a methodology for studying the frames of Mandelbrot sets of polynomials of the second degree of a complex variable, based on the integration of analytical methods, mathematical programming and the use of computer graphics. A connection is established between the frames of the first and second orders of Mandelbrot sets of functions and with the curves – cardioid, lemniscate and circle. Algorithms for constructing the frames of the Mandelbrot sets of the functions under consideration in the MathCad mathematical package are presented. The task is to describe 3-order frames (where) of the Mandelbrot sets of functions and, which correspond to the existence of attracting fixed points of period 3. It is shown that the establishment of associative relations between classes of various mathematical objects (polynomials of a complex variable, curves, Mandelbrot sets) contributes to the development of original thinking and creative potential of students.

In this thesis, we survey the big theme of fractals - Mandelbrot sets. We start to study Julia sets before study Mandelbrot sets, and the goal is generating figures of fractals and applying to arts. Hence, we introduce the definition and properties of Julia sets firstly, and use this theory to arrange some useful algorithms for generating the figures of Julia sets. After we survey Julia sets, we can study Mandelbrot sets, since the definition of Mandelbrot sets is all of the points such that the Julia set is onnected. However, we obtain the obstacle when generating andelbrot sets, that is, how to check the Julia set is connected or not? The answer of this question is - the fundamental theorem of Mandelbrot sets, we can generate the figures of Mandelbrot sets by this theorem. Finally, we give some examples of Mandelbrot sets and Julia sets, and introduce 3-dimensional Mandelbrot sets and Julia sets.

Abstract:
For the family of complex rational maps F_λ(z)=z^n+λ/z^d, where λ is a complex parameter and n, d ≥ 2 are integers, many small copies of the well-known Mandelbrot set are visible in the parameter plane. An infinite number of these are located around the boundary of the connectedness locus and are accessible by parameter rays from the Cantor set locus. Maps taken from main cardioid of these accessbile Mandelbrot sets have attracting periodic cycles. A method for constructing models of the Julia sets corresponding to such maps is described. These models are then used to explore the existence of dynamical conjugacies between maps taken from distinct accessible Mandelbrot sets in the upper halfplane.

Abstract:
This paper investigates the use of the Fourier transform and Wavelet transform as methods to supplement the more common root mean squared elevation and power spectral density methods of terrain characterization. Two dimensional terrain profiles were generated using the Weierstrass-Mandelbrot fractal equation. The Fourier and Wavelet transforms were used to decompose these terrains into a parameter set. A two degree of freedom quarter car model was used to evaluate the vehicle response before and after the terrain characterization. It was determined that the Fourier transform can be used to reduce the profile into the key frequency components. The Wavelet transform can effectively detect discontinuities of the profile and changes in the roughness of the profile. These two techniques can be added to current methods to yield a more robust terrain characterization.

Abstract:
Abstract Fractal structures are unique in the sense that they are highly expandible or collapsible and yet they are capable of preserving their basic structural geometry in a dynamic fashion. This dynamic geometric invariance opens up a new territory in fractal solids, i.e., fractal structures, mechanisms and robot manipulators. Some of these structure are in the form of highly deployable mechanisms and possibly redundant, multi-axis, multi-arm, multi-finger robot manipulators whose kinematic structure is fractal. Thus, simple fractal structures, such as triadic cantor set, and fractal functions, such as the Weirstraus-Mandelbrot functions, govern the structural branching of such robots and essentially define their kinematic structure. These deployable fractal structures, mechanisms and robot manipulators are shown to be capable of generating unique, and yet unparalleled properties such as computer-controlled microsensing even down to molecular level (micromachining) and computer-controlled dynamics such as the creation of hypervelocity fractons with speeds in the range of hundreds of kilometers per second. A number of structures and mechanisms and their unique properties are presented in this paper and a simple kinematic model is presented and briefly discussed.

Abstract:
The present paper describes a methodology for the inverse identification of the complete set of parameters associated with the Weirstrass-Mandelbrot (W-M) function that can describe any fractal scalar field distribution of measured data defined within a volume. Our effort is motivated by the need to be able to describe a scalar field quantity distribution in a volume in order to be able to represent analytically various non-homogeneous material properties distributions for engineering and science applications. Our method involves utilizing a refactoring of the W-M function that permits defining the characterization problem as a high dimensional singular value decomposition problem for the determination of the so-called phases of the function. Coupled with this process is a second level exhaustive search that enables the determination of the density of the frequencies involved in defining the trigonometric functions involved in the definition of the W-M function. Numerical applications of the proposed method on both synthetic and actual volume data, validate the efficiency and the accuracy of the proposed approach. This approach constitutes a radical departure from the traditional fractal dimension characterization studies and opens the road for a very large number of applications and generalizes the approach developed by the authors for fractal surfaces to that of fractal volumes.

Abstract:
The present paper describes a methodology for the inverse identification of the complete set of parameters associated with the Weirstrass-Mandelbrot (W-M) function that can describe any rough surface known by its profilometric or topographic data. Our effort is motivated by the need to determine the mechanical, electrical and thermal properties of contact surfaces between deformable materials that conduct electricity and heat and require an analytical representation of the surfaces involved. Our method involves utilizing a refactoring of the W-M function that permits defining the characterization problem as a high dimensional singular value decomposition problem for the determination of the so-called phases of the function. Coupled with this process is a second level exhaustive search that enables the determination of the density of the frequencies involved in defining the trigonometric functions involved in the definition of the W-M function. Our approach proves that this is the only additional parameter that needs to be determined for full characterization of the W-M function as the rest can be selected arbitrarily. Numerical applications of the proposed method on both synthetic and actual elevation data, validate the efficiency and the accuracy of the proposed approach. This approach constitutes a radical departure from the traditional fractal dimension characterization studies and opens the road for a very large number of applications.
