recent studies on wavelet transform and fractal modeling applied on mammograms for the detection of cancerous tissues indicate that microcalcifications and masses can be utilized for the study of the morphology and diagnosis of cancerous cases. it is shown that the use of fractal modeling, as applied to a given image, can clearly discern cancerous zones from noncancerous areas. in this paper, f...

This paper presents the analysis of novelistic fractal optical antenna arrays in a conceptual manner. Fractal antennas are array antennas with converging and diverging growth of basic element or elements for multi-wideband capturing of the electromagnetic waves. Most of these antennas relay on two components for their characteristics. First one is the basic stage shape and second one is the num...

Fractal-rate behavior is a ubiquitous and important aspect of normal mammalian cochlear-nerve activity, which may well be absent in nerve bers excited by present cochlear prostheses. We propose simple methods for introducing fractal uctuations into a cochlear prosthesis, thus providing the natural statistical character of eighth-nerve ber spike trains. Fractal behavior is ubiquitous in mammalia...

Diffusion towards a fractal adsorber is a well-researched problem with many applications. While the steady-state flux towards such adsorbers is known to be characterized by the fractal dimension (D{F}) of the surface, the more general problem of time-dependent adsorption kinetics of fractal surfaces remains poorly understood. In this Letter, we show that the time-dependent flux to fractal adsor...

New irrigation methods under different nutritional element supplies for maize production was designed and tested for evaluate quantitative and qualitative parameters by split-plot arrangement according complete randomized block design with three replications. Different Irrigation regimes was belonged to main plots (Conventional furrow irrigation: CFI or A1, Alternate furrow irrigation: AFI or A...

This paper presents a mathematical model for transient flow of the non-Newtonian power-law fluid in double porous media and fractal reservoir. By using Douglas-Jones predictor-corrector method, we obtain the solution for the constant rate condition at a single well in an infinite reservoir. The flow behavior is also analyzed. Finally, we discuss the pressure response to the various parameters. ...

We prove that the hierarchical fractal model recently proposed for describing the stretched polymers [A. N. Samukhin et al, Phys. Rev. Lett. 78, 326(1997)] is equivalent to a one-dimensional chain with hierarchical aperiodic structure. By use of the transfer matrix technique we calculate the electronic transmission and the dc conductance. We find that there exist sharp-edged transmission subban...

The carbon content of transparent exopolymeric particles (TEP) was measured in the laboratory in particles produced by bubbling exudates of the dlaton~ Thalassiosira weissflogij, grown under nitrogen non-limited conditions (N:P = 7). The carbon content of these parhcles ( R P C ) appears to vary as a function of their size according to TEP-C = 0.25 X 10-= r255 (pg C TEP-I), where r is the equiv...

21 A theoretical effective thermal conductivity model is derived based on fractal 22 distribution characteristics of nanoparticle aggregation. Considering two different 23 mechanisms of heat conduction including particle aggregation and convention, the 24 model is expressed as a function of the fractal dimension and concentration. In the 25 model, the change of fractal dimension is related to t...

This paper deals with rigidity percolation in composite materials consisting of a dispersion of mineral particles in a microstructured viscoelastic matrix. The viscoelastic matrix in this specific case is a hydrocarbon refinery residue. In a set of model random composites the mean interparticle surface-to-surface distance was controlled, changing particle volume fraction phi and particle number...
