In this paper, correlation between rock types and Cu mineralization obtained by Concentration-Number (C-N) fractal model calculated in Kushk-e-Bahram Cu deposit, Central Iran. This deposit is located in the Urumieh-Dokhtar magmatic arc (UDMA). The main subject in this study was determination of relation between the Cu grade populations and rock types based on subsurface data using logratio matr...

Regional exploration and identification of anomalies can be done by geochemical data resulted from stream sediments. In this paper, fractal methods of concentration-number and concentration-area were used for regional studies, and abnormalities of elements including gold, arsenic, bismuth and mercury were studied. Statistical processing of these elements took place with the help of 1063 samples...

An efficient disintegrant is capable of breaking up a tablet in the smallest possible particles in the shortest time. Until now, comparative data on the efficacy of different disintegrants is based on dissolution studies or the disintegration time. Extending these approaches, this study introduces a method, which defines the evolution of fractal dimensions of tablets as surrogate parameter for ...

The recently introduced self-organizing height-arrow (HA) model is numerically investigated on the square lattice and analytically on the Bethe lattice. The concentration of occupied sites and critical exponents of distributions of avalanches are evaluated for two slightly different versions of the model. The obtained exponents for distributions of avalanches by mass, area, duration and appropr...

Fractal structure of the six-vertex model is introduced with the use of the IFS (Iterated Function Systems). The fractal dimension satisfies an equation written by the free energy of the six-vertex model. It is pointed out that the transfer matrix method and the n-equivalence relation introduced in lattice theories have also been introduced in the area of fractal geometry. All the results can b...

In this work, SiO2 –ZrO2 mixed oxides was prepared by the polymeric sol–gel route. The characterization of pore structure, which determines the permeation process of membrane, is of great importance. So far, most investigations have focused on such pore structure as specific surface area and pore size distribution, but the surface fractal, the important parameter reflecting the roughness of por...

The fractal degree of adsorption on the multi-walled carbon nanotube has been investigated. The fractal-like Langmuir kinetics model has been used to obtain the fractal degree of ion adsorption on multi-walled carbon nanotube. The behavior of the fractal-like kinetics equation was compared with some famous rate equations like Langmuir, pseudo-first-order and pseudo-second-order equations. It is...
