In gold (Au) exploration, the analysis of both bulk leach extractable (BLEG) and acid-extractable Au in <180μm stream sediment fraction are two most common approaches. The Eskişehir- Sivrihisar region Western Türkiye hosts several orogenic type mineral deposits. purpose this study is to delineate geochemical anomalies ore-related elements track their dispersion, which may lead discovery unknown...

Regional exploration and identification of anomalies can be done by geochemical data resulted from stream sediments. In this paper, fractal methods of concentration-number and concentration-area were used for regional studies, and abnormalities of elements including gold, arsenic, bismuth and mercury were studied. Statistical processing of these elements took place with the help of 1063 samples...

As a new modeling procedure of geothermal energy extraction systems, the authors present two dimensional and three dimensional modeling techniques of subsurface fracture network, based on fractal geometry. Fluid flow in fractured rock occurs primarily through a connected network of discrete fractures. The fracture network approach, therefore, seeks to model fluid flow and heat transfer through ...

The Zarshuran Carlin-like gold deposit is located at the Takab Metallogenic belt in the northern part of the Sanandaj-Sirjan zone, NW Iran. The high-grade ore bodies are mainly hosted by black shale and cream to gray massive limestone along the NNE-trending extensional fault/fracture zones. The aim of this investigation was to determine and separate the gold mineralized stages based on the surf...

1 I n t r o d u c t i o n The aim of geometric modeling is to model forms by manipulating or combining well-known shapes such as circles and boxes. In order to be convenient such a model should allow easy control and manipulation of the final shape. When dealing with fractal geometric modeling, the control on ffactal figures is not so easily achieved as with classical smooth ones. The difficult...

The models relating the intensity of perception to the stimulus are of great importance in sensorial analysis and practical applications. For example, in olfactometry they have been employed to determine: the odour threshold and suprathreshold, hedonic scale assessment and the degree of appreciation. The perceived intensity of a stimuli should be expressed in the form of function depending on a...

Major aim of this study is to define the copper and gold anomalies using the combination of the Concentration-Number (C-N) fractal and the stepwise factor analysis, based on stream sediment samples in Lahrud 1:100,000 sheet, NW Iran. The case study is situated in Alborz-Azerbaijan structural zone. Elements related to Au and Cu hydrothermally mineralization were selected for this study, accordin...

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...

We study the betweenness centrality of fractal and nonfractal scale-free network models as well as real networks. We show that the correlation between degree and betweenness centrality C of nodes is much weaker in fractal network models compared to nonfractal models. We also show that nodes of both fractal and nonfractal scale-free networks have power-law betweenness centrality distribution P(C...
