A Study on the Curves of Scaling Behavior of Fractal Cities [PDF]
The curves of scaling behavior is a significant concept in fractal dimension analysis of complex systems. However, the underlying rationale of this kind of curves for fractal cities is not yet clear. This paper is devoted to researching a set of basic problems of the scaling behavior curves in urban studies by using mathematical reasoning and empirical

Fractal Properties and Characterizations [PDF]
There are three important types of structural properties that remain unchanged under the structural transformation of condensed matter physics and chemistry. They are the properties that remain unchanged under the structural periodic transformation-periodic properties. The properties that remain unchanged under the structural multi scale transformation-

Closed Contour Fractal Dimension Estimation by the Fourier Transform [PDF]
This work proposes a novel technique for the numerical calculus of the fractal dimension of fractal objects which can be represented as a closed contour. The proposed method maps the fractal contour onto a complex signal and calculates its fractal dimension using the Fourier transform.

Fractal Dimension and Retinal Pathology: A Meta-analysis [PDF]
Due to the fractal nature of retinal blood vessels, the retinal fractal dimension is a natural parameter for researchers to explore and has garnered interest as a potential diagnostic tool. This review aims to summarize the current scientific evidence regarding the relationship between fractal dimension and retinal pathology and thus assess the ...

Deterministic fractals: extracting additional information from small-angle scattering data [PDF]
The small-angle scattering curves of deterministic mass fractals are studied and analyzed in the momentum space. In the fractal region, the curve I(q)q^D is found to be log-periodic with a good accuracy, and the period is equal to the scaling factor of the fractal.

Small-angle scattering from the Cantor surface fractal on the plane and the Koch snowflake [PDF]
The small-angle scattering (SAS) from the Cantor surface fractal on the plane and Koch snowflake is considered. We develop the construction algorithm for the Koch snowflake, which makes possible the recurrence relation for the scattering amplitude.

On Bivariate Fractal Interpolation for Countable Data and Associated Nonlinear Fractal Operator [PDF]
We provide a general framework to construct fractal interpolation surfaces (FISs) for a prescribed countably infinite data set on a rectangular grid. Using this as a crucial tool, we obtain a parameterized family of bivariate fractal functions simultaneously interpolating and approximating a prescribed bivariate continuous function.

The structure of deterministic mass and surface fractals: theory and methods of analyzing small-angle scattering data [PDF]
Small-angle scattering (SAS) of X-rays, neutrons or light from ensembles of randomly oriented and placed deterministic fractal structures are studied theoretically. In the standard analysis, a very few parameters can be determined from SAS data: the fractal dimension, and the lower and upper limits of the fractal range.

Local Fractal Interpolation On Unbounded Domains [PDF]
We define fractal interpolation on unbounded domains for a certain class of topological spaces and construct local fractal functions. In addition, we derive some properties of these local fractal functions, consider their tensor products, and give conditions for local fractal functions on unbounded domains to be elements of Bochner-Lebesgue spaces.

The dynamics of the angular and radial density correlation scaling exponents in fractal to non-fractal morphodynamics [PDF]
Fractal/non-fractal morphological transitions allow for the systematic study of the physics behind fractal morphogenesis in nature. In these systems, the fractal dimension is considered a non-thermal order parameter, commonly and equivalently computed from the scaling of the two-point radial- or angular-density correlations.
