But, as with many things in math, one of the earliest foundational studies of what would be later described as fractals came from a surprisingly difficult question: How long is the coastline of ...

In the late 19th century, Karl Weierstrass invented a fractal-like function that was decried as nothing less than a ...

In a mesmerizing blend of art and mathematics, a research student from University College London (UCL) has recently gained ...

Play with shapes that grow, shrink, and change over several stages. Explore self-similarity and patterns in fractal measurements. Can you see how these shapes are fractals? Note: Each fractal will be ...

This program draws special types of pictures called fractals. A fractal is a shape that is self-similar --- that is, it looks the same no matter how closely you zoom in or out For instance, a tree can ...

Fractal geometry is a fascinating area of mathematics that studies complex shapes and patterns that exhibit self-similarity at different scales. This means that the same patterns can be observed ...

At the unveiling ceremony Sir Leszek Borysiewicz, vice-chancellor of Cambridge University, pointed out that the fractal was so ahead of its time that ‘[the Sierpiński triangle] is only seeing its true ...

His research interest includes Fractal theory, Partial differential equation, Numerical analysis, Fractional calculus, Soliton solutions, Bifurcation and sensitivity analysis. Dr. Yusuf Gurefe is an ...
