The Solutions to the Uncertainty Problem of Urban Fractal Dimension Calculation

open access: yesEntropy, 2019
Fractal geometry provides a powerful tool for scale-free spatial analysis of cities, but the fractal dimension calculation results always depend on methods and scopes of the study area. This phenomenon has been puzzling many researchers.

Fractal Dimension of Digital 3D Rock Models with Different Pore Structures

open access: yesEnergies, 2022
The macroscopic physical properties of rocks are profoundly determined by their microstructure, and the research of accurately characterizing rock pore structure has been extensively carried out in the fields of petroleum engineering and geoscience ...

Helicalised fractals

open access: yes, 2015
We formulate the helicaliser, which replaces a given smooth curve by another curve that winds around it. In our analysis, we relate this formulation to the geometrical properties of the self-similar circular fractal (the discrete version of the curved ...

Mapping Nanoscale Protein‐Corona Kinetics of DoE‐Optimized Perfluorocarbon Encapsulated‐PLGA Nanoparticles by In Situ, Time‐Resolved Synchrotron SAXS

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A two‐phase workflow (OFAT screening followed by central composite design) maps how processing variables tune PFCE‐PLGA nanoparticle size, dispersity, surface charge, loading, and 19F‐MRI signal. In situ, time‐resolved synchrotron SAXS tracks albumin‐corona growth on intact dispersions and reveals PFCE‐dependent adsorption pathways.

Fractal dimension of cortical functional connectivity networks & severity of disorders of consciousness.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
Recent evidence suggests that the quantity and quality of conscious experience may be a function of the complexity of activity in the brain and that consciousness emerges in a critical zone between low and high-entropy states.

Influence of the Fractal Geometry on the Mechanical Resistance of Cantilever Beams Designed through Topology Optimization

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2021
In this work, the complex geometry of beams obtained from topology optimization is characterized through the fractal dimension (FD). The fractal dimension is employed as an efficiency measure of the mass distribution in the beams, that is, the capacity ...

The Fractal Dimension of Projected Clouds

open access: yes, 2005
The interstellar medium seems to have an underlying fractal structure which can be characterized through its fractal dimension. However, interstellar clouds are observed as projected two-dimensional images, and the projection of a tri-dimensional fractal

Grain textural analysis across a range of glacial facies [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
A technique proposed by Hooke and Iverson (1995) to identify deformed subglacial sediments is reviewed and tested, based on two main objectives. First, an investigation of whether the fractal dimension can distinguish between non-deformed and deformed ...

Water Permeates and Plasticizes Amorphous Carbon Dots: Unraveling the Inner Accessibility of the Nanoparticles by Glass Transition Studies

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
The water permeability of amorphous carbon dots (CDs) is demonstrated by investigating their plasticization. Novel polyamide‐based and amorphous nanoparticles are synthesized by controlling their inner packing density. Water plasticization is evidenced by the decrease of the CDs glass transition temperature with increasing the hydration degree.

An Investigation of Fractal Characteristics of Marine Shales in the Southern China from Nitrogen Adsorption Data

open access: yesJournal of Chemistry, 2015
We mainly focus on the Permian, Lower Cambrian, Lower Silurian, and Upper Ordovician Formation; the fractal dimensions of marine shales in southern China were calculated using the FHH fractal model based on the low-pressure nitrogen adsorption analysis ...
