We have discovered a new fractal pattern, coffee exhibits on a horizontal surface, with a fractal dimension 06 . 0 88 . 1 ± , when a heavy coffee droplet interacts with the surface of lighter milk. Parts of coffee pattern on the surface disappear due to Rayleigh–Taylor instability, and the annihilative behavior produces the fractal pattern. Coffee fractals and the Sierpinski carpet have common ...

We show that there exists a divergent correlation length in 2d quantum gravity for the matter fields close to the critical point provided one uses the invariant geodesic distance as the measure of distance. The corresponding reparameterization invariant two-point functions satisfy all scaling relations known from the ordinary theory of critical phenomena and the KPZ exponents are determined by ...

This work studies the problem of GPU thread mapping for a Sierpiński gasket fractal embedded in a discrete Euclidean space of n × n. A block-space map λ : Z2E 7→ Z 2 F is proposed, from Euclidean parallel space E to embedded fractal space F, that maps in O(log 2 log 2 (n)) time and uses no more than O(n) threads with H ≈ 1.58... being the Hausdorff dimension, making it parallel space efficient....

Two groups of aggregates with fractal dimensions of 1.81 ( 0.09 and 2.33 ( 0.07 were generated by coagulation of latex microspheres (2.84 μm) in a Jar-test (paddle-mixing) device. The collision rates between these fractal aggregates (200-1000 μm) and small (1.48 μm) particles were measured for individual aggregates that had settled through a suspension of the small particles. Aggregate permeabi...

We introduce fractal liquids by generalizing classical liquids of integer dimensions d=1,2,3 to a noninteger dimension dl. The particles composing the liquid are fractal objects and their configuration space is also fractal, with the same dimension. Realizations of our generic model system include microphase separated binary liquids in porous media, and highly branched liquid droplets confined ...

The purpose of this work is to compare the linear and non-linear kriging methods in the mineral resource estimation of the Qolqoleh gold deposit in Saqqez, NW Iran. Considering the fact that the gold distribution is positively skewed and has a significant difference with a normal curve, a geostatistical estimation is complicated in these cases. Linear kriging, as a resource estimation method, c...

We implement Wilson fermions on 2D Lorentzian triangulation and determine the spectrum of the Dirac-Wilson operator. We compare it to the spectrum of the corresponding operator in the Euclidean background. We use fermionic particle to probe the fractal properties of Lorentzian gravity coupled to c = 1/2 and c = 4 matter. We numerically determine the scaling exponent of the mass gap M ∼ N −1/dH ...
