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...

The unsmooth boundary will greatly affect motion morphology of a shallow water wave, and a fractal space is introduced to establish a generalized KdV-Burgers equation with fractal derivatives. The semi-inverse method is used to establish a fractal variational formulation of the problem, which provides conservation laws in an energy form in the fractal space and possible solution structures of t...

Lyapunov stability and asymptotic stability conditions for the solutions of the fractional integrodiffrential equations x (α) (t) = f (t, x(t)) + t t 0 K(t, s, x(s))ds, 0 < α ≤ 1, with the initial condition x (α−1) (t 0) = x 0 , have been investigated. Our methods are applications of Gronwall's lemma and Schwartz inequality.

Results on the dynamics of the planar pendulum with parametric vertical timeperiodic forcing are reviewed and extended. Numerical methods are employed to study the various dynamical features of the system about its equilibrium positions. Furthermore, the dynamics of the system far from its equilibrium points is systematically investigated by using phase portraits and Poincare sections. The attr...

The orbital motion of the planets in the Solar System is chaotic. As a result, initially close orbits diverge exponentially with a characteristic Lyapunov time of 5 Ma. This sensitivity to initial conditions will limit the possibility of obtaining an accurate solution for the orbital and precessional motion of the Earth over more than 35– 50 Ma. The principal sources of uncertainty in the model...

In this paper, we have achieved adaptive hybrid function projective synchronization between two identical chaotic space-tether systems with uncertain time-varying parameters and with each system evolving from different initial conditions by applying adaptive control technique. Based on Lyapunov stability theory, adaptive control laws and parameter update laws for estimating the uncertain, timev...

This study aims to evaluate the efficiency of the concentration-number (C-N) fractal model for discrimination of soil horizon regarding the depth distribution profile. In this regard, soil parameters such as pH, organic carbon content, calcareous mineral content, electrical conductivity and available phosphorus of Ziarat forestland in Golestan Province, north of Iran, has been investigated. The...

The river patterns comprise of straight, meandering, braided and wandering river. They are formed and developed under the action of the long-term certain sediment-water assembly and the geological condition. There are many traditional methods such as single parameter including bend coefficient, width-depth ration and multipleparameters discrimination methods, to distinguish the river pattern. I...

An increasing demand of secure data transmission over internet leads to the challenge of implementing a consistent cryptosystem. In 2004, USA navy published the patent which highlights the importance of fractal as an encryption/decryption key in a cryptosystem [1]. Fractal possess butterfly effect i.e. sensitivity to initial condition, due to which small change in input produces a major change ...

introduction: water and soil retention curve is one of the most important properties of porous media to obtain in a laboratory retention curve and time associated with errors. for this reason, researchers have proposed techniques that help them to more easily acquired characteristic curve. one of these methods is the use of fractal geometry. determining the relationship between particle size di...
