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...

Why does fractal image compression work? What properties must an image have for fractal block coders to work well? What is the implicit image model underlying fractal image compression? The behavior of fractal block coders is clear for deterministically self-similar structures. In this paper we examine the behavior of these coders on statistically self-similar structures. Speci cally, we examin...

in this work, sio2 –zro2 mixed oxides was prepared by the polymeric sol–gel route. the characterization of pore structure, which determines the permeation process of membrane, is of great importance. so far, most investigations have focused on such pore structure as specific surface area and pore size distribution, but the surface fractal, the important parameter reflecting the roughness of por...

We use the fractional integrals to describe fractal solid. We suggest to consider the fractal solid as special (fractional) continuous medium. We replace the fractal solid with fractal mass dimension by some continuous model that is described by fractional integrals. The fractional integrals are considered as approximation of the integrals on fractals. We derive fractional generalization of the...

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...

We describe the fractal solid by a special continuous medium model. We propose to describe the fractal solid by a fractional continuous model, where all characteristics and fields are defined everywhere in the volume but they follow some generalized equations which are derived by using integrals of fractional order. The order of fractional integral can be equal to the fractal mass dimension of ...

Today Fractal geometry is completely new area of research in the field of computer science and engineering. It has wide range of applications. Fractals in nature are so complicated and irregular that it is hopeless to model them by simply using classical geometry objects. Benoit Mandelbrot, the father of fractal geometry, from his book The Fractal Geometry of Nature, 1982. This paper explor var...

A fractal set which corresponds to the six-vertex model has been obtained and a relationship between the free energy of the six-vertex model and the fractal dimension of the fractal set was established. Notions which correspond to the transfer matrix and the n-equivalence has been found in the area of the fractal geometry. This correspondence can be generalized to the case of the models suitabl...

A novel texture detecting analysis for medical pathological tissue images was developed by fractal Brown model. According to fractal Brown random field model, a discrete fractal random field for image texture detection on a definite scale could be derived from the Brown model. Using fractal dimensions in partial region of the image and gray difference between adjacent pixels and relevant Hurst ...

This review first gives an overview on the concept of fractal geometry with definitions and explanations of the most fundamental properties of fractal structures and processes like self-similarity, power law scaling relationship, scale invariance, scaling range and fractal dimensions. Having laid down the grounds of the basics in terminology and mathematical formalism, the authors systematicall...
