Fractal geometry
Lewis Richardson, Seacoast line length
East seacoast
10 km
11 x 1km
East seacoast
• Seacoast line length k.n(k)
• lim k→0 k.n(k) = D
Weat seacoast
West seacoast
• lim k→0 k.n(k) =∞
Self-similarity
Koch snowflakeNiels Fabian Helge von Koch (25.1. 1870 – 11.3. 1924 Stockholm)
Length of Koch snowflake
3 4/3 * 3 = 4 4/3*4/3*3 = 5,33 (4/3)3*3=7,11
(4/3)n*3 →∞
Sierpinski carpet
Area of Sierpinski carpetHole area
1/9
8/9 * 1/9
(8/9)2 * 1/9
(8/9)n * 1/9
Suma 1/9 * ∑(8/9)i = 1
Area of the carpet = 1 – hole area = 0
Menger sponge
Natural fractals
Natural self-similarity
Mathematical definition
• Fractal is a shape with Hausdorf dimension different of geometrical dimension
Non-fractal shapes
• Refining the gauge s-times
• The number of segments increase sD –times
• D is geometrical dimension
Dimension of Koch snowflake
• Koch curve– 3 x refining => 4 x length– s = 3 => N = 4– D = logN/logs = log4/log3 = 1.261895
Other Hausdorf dimensions
• Sierpinski carpet 1,58
• Menger sponge 2,72
• Pean curve 2
• Sea coastline
1,02 – 1,25
Polynomical fractals
• Polynomical recursive formula– Kn+1 = f(kn)
• The sequence depending on the origin k0
– Coverges– Diverges– Oscillates
Mandelbrot set
Mandelbrot set
• Part of complex plane
• z0 = 0, zn+1 = zn2 + c
• If for given c the sequence– Converges c is in Mandelbrot set– Diverges c is not in Mandelbrot set– Oscillates c is in Mandelbrot set
