Fractal branching of trees. Fractal analysis is assessing fractal characteristics of data.It consists of several methods to assign a fractal dimension and other fractal characteristics to a dataset which may be a theoretical dataset, or a pattern or signal extracted from phenomena including topography, [1] natural geometric objects, ecology and aquatic sciences, [2] sound, market fluctuations ...
The Minkowski sausage [3] or Minkowski curve is a fractal first proposed by and named for Hermann Minkowski as well as its casual resemblance to a sausage or sausage links. The initiator is a line segment and the generator is a broken line of eight parts one fourth the length.
This creates drawings where the thin "filaments" of the Mandelbrot set can be easily seen. This technique is used to good effect in the B&W images of Mandelbrot sets in the books "The Beauty of Fractals [9]" and "The Science of Fractal Images". [10] Here is a sample B&W image rendered using Distance Estimates:
It studies questions such as "how does heat diffuse in a fractal?" and "How does a fractal vibrate?" In the smooth case the operator that occurs most often in the equations modelling these questions is the Laplacian , so the starting point for the theory of analysis on fractals is to define a Laplacian on fractals.
A self-affine fractal with Hausdorff dimension=1.8272. In mathematics , self-affinity is a feature of a fractal whose pieces are scaled by different amounts in the x- and y-directions. This means that to appreciate the self similarity of these fractal objects, they have to be rescaled using an anisotropic affine transformation .
Fractal derivatives were created for the study of anomalous diffusion, by which traditional approaches fail to factor in the fractal nature of the media. A fractal measure t is scaled according to t α. Such a derivative is local, in contrast to the similarly applied fractional derivative. Fractal calculus is formulated as a generalization of ...
