Today Fractal geometry is completely new area of research in the field of computer science and engineering. It has wide range of applications. Fractals in nature are so complicated and irregular that it is hopeless to model them by simply using classical geometry objects. Benoit Mandelbrot, the father of fractal geometry, from his book The Fractal Geometry of Nature, 1982. This paper explor var...

A fractal set which corresponds to the six-vertex model has been obtained and a relationship between the free energy of the six-vertex model and the fractal dimension of the fractal set was established. Notions which correspond to the transfer matrix and the n-equivalence has been found in the area of the fractal geometry. This correspondence can be generalized to the case of the models suitabl...

A novel texture detecting analysis for medical pathological tissue images was developed by fractal Brown model. According to fractal Brown random field model, a discrete fractal random field for image texture detection on a definite scale could be derived from the Brown model. Using fractal dimensions in partial region of the image and gray difference between adjacent pixels and relevant Hurst ...

This review first gives an overview on the concept of fractal geometry with definitions and explanations of the most fundamental properties of fractal structures and processes like self-similarity, power law scaling relationship, scale invariance, scaling range and fractal dimensions. Having laid down the grounds of the basics in terminology and mathematical formalism, the authors systematicall...

Two groups of aggregates with fractal dimensions of 1.81 ( 0.09 and 2.33 ( 0.07 were generated by coagulation of latex microspheres (2.84 μm) in a Jar-test (paddle-mixing) device. The collision rates between these fractal aggregates (200-1000 μm) and small (1.48 μm) particles were measured for individual aggregates that had settled through a suspension of the small particles. Aggregate permeabi...

Real networks can be classified into two categories: fractal networks and non-fractal networks. Here we introduce a unifying model for the two types of networks. Our model network is governed by a parameter q. We obtain the topological properties of the network including the degree distribution, average path length, diameter, fractal dimensions, and betweenness centrality distribution, which ar...

We introduce fractal liquids by generalizing classical liquids of integer dimensions d=1,2,3 to a noninteger dimension dl. The particles composing the liquid are fractal objects and their configuration space is also fractal, with the same dimension. Realizations of our generic model system include microphase separated binary liquids in porous media, and highly branched liquid droplets confined ...

Purpose – Fractal geometry can be used to model natural objects which cannot be easily represented by the euclidean geometry. However, contemporary computer-aided design (CAD) and computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) systems cannot be used to model a fractal object efficiently. In a general layer manufacturing (LM) workflow, a model described by the euclidean geometry is required in order to gene...
