They're everywhere, those bright, weird, beautiful shapes called fractals. But what are they, really? Fractals are geometric figures, just like rectangles, circles and squares, but fractals have special properties that those figures do not have. There's lots of information on the Web about fractals, but most of it is either just pretty pictures or very high-level mathematics. So this fractals site is for kids, to help them understand what the weird pictures are all about - that it's math - and that it's fun! Teachers: Every lesson has a print version for classroom use.

Algebra Applied Mathematics Calculus and Analysis Discrete Mathematics ... Interactive Demonstrations Fractal A fractal is an object or quantity that displays self-similarity , in a somewhat technical sense, on all scales. The object need not exhibit exactly the same structure at all scales, but the same "type" of structures must appear on all scales. A plot of the quantity on a log-log graph versus scale then gives a straight line, whose slope is said to be the fractal dimension . The prototypical example for a fractal is the length of a coastline measured with different length rulers . The shorter the ruler , the longer the length measured, a paradox known as the coastline paradox Illustrated above are the fractals known as the Gosper island Koch snowflake box fractal Barnsley's fern , and Mandelbrot set SEE ALSO: Attractor Backtracking Barnsley's Fern Box Fractal ...

From the Fractal FAQ: "A fractal is a rough or fragmented geometric shape that can be subdivided in parts, each of which is (at least approximately) a reduced-size copy of the whole. Fractals are generally self-similar and independent of scale." "There are many mathematical structures that are fractals; e.g. Sierpinski triangle, Koch snowflake, Peano curve, Mandelbrot set, and Lorenz attractor. Fractals also describe many real-world objects, such as clouds, mountains, turbulence, and coastlines, that do not correspond to simple geometric shapes." The Fractal FAQ was created and edited by Ken Shirriff through September 26, 1994. The current editor is Ermel Stepp. Alan Beck writes: "Basically, a fractal is any pattern that reveals greater complexity as it is enlarged. Thus, fractals graphically portray the notion of 'worlds within worlds' which has obsessed Western culture from its tenth-century beginnings." Beck further explains that when we look very closely at patterns that are Euclidean, the shapes look more and more like straight lines, but that when you look at a fractal up close you see more and more details.

Your browser does not support the IFRAME tag. Your browser does not support the IFRAME tag. Back in the 1960's, a French mathematician named Benoit Mandelbrot started thinking about simple pretty simple: How long is the coast of Britain? Sure, it seems easy enough... But, think about how you'd really measure it... Would you fly over the coast in an airplane and measure how far you flew? Or would you take a ruler (or meter stick) and get down on your hands and knees and crawl around the edge? It would be different! In 1975, he made up the word "fractal" because he thought these figures would look fractured or broken up. It wasn't until he had a computer that he could SEE a picture of what he'd been thinking about! To learn about what a fractal is

The Topic: Fractals Easier - A fractal is a shape, often drawn by a computer, that repeats itself in a pattern. The design shapes usually reoccur in different sizes. Harder - Fractals are endlessly repeating patterns that vary according to a set formula, a mixture of art and geometry. Fractals are any pattern that reveals greater complexity as it is enlarged A real-life example of fractals is ice crystals freezing on a glass window. You can see countless variations of the same pattern emerge in the crystals over time.

Fractal Geometry A Fractal is generally "a rough or fragmented geometric shape that can be split into parts, each of which is (at least approximately) a reduced-size copy of the whole," a property called self-similarity. The term was coined by Benoit Mandelbrot in 1975 and was derived from the Latin fractious meaning "broken" or "fractured." A mathematical fractal is based on an equation that undergoes iteration, a form of feedback based on recursion. A fractal often has the following features: It has a fine structure at arbitrarily small scales. It is too irregular to be easily described in traditional Euclidean geometric language. It is self-similar (at least approximately or stochastically). It has a simple and recursive definition. It has a Hausdorff dimension which is greater than its topological dimension (although this requirement is not met by space-filling curves such as the Hilbert curve). Because they appear similar at all levels of magnification, fractals are often considered to be infinitely complex (in informal terms). Natural objects that approximate fractals to a degree include clouds, mountain ranges, lightning bolts, coastlines, and snow flakes. However, not all self-similar objects are fractals - for example, the real line (a straight Euclidean line) is formally self-similar but fails to have other fractal characteristics; for instance, it is regular enough to be described in Euclidean terms.

Concepts in Complex Systems Yaneer Bar-Yam Fractals Fractals are entities that look the same under magnification, they are "self-similar." More specifically, a geometric fractal is formed of parts, which, when magnified, are the same as the original shape. Fractals can also involve randomness, so that the similarity of parts to the whole can be of a statistical or average property. An example of a geometric fractal is the Koch curve (an approximate version is shown below) which can be made using a simple algorithm: Take away the middle third of a line segment and insert two segments that are the same length as the one that was removed. Place them so they would make an equilateral triangle with the removed segment. Repeat this procedure with each of the line segments that now make up the curve. Fractals get their name because they can be seen to have fractional dimension. Length, area and volume measure the size of one, two and three dimensional shapes respectively. However, a Koch curve can be shown to be infinite in length and to cover no area. It has a dimension between one and two (strictly its dimension is d=ln(4)/ln(3)~1.2619). This means that if we use a ruler to measure the length of the curve, the length we find depends on how long the ruler is. The shorter the ruler, the longer is the length we measure. This is because a longer ruler cannot "get inside" smaller bumps. An example of a fractal-like shape found in nature is a coastline. How long is the coastline? Just as with the Koch curve, the length of the coastline depends on how long the ruler is used to measure it because there are inlets and peninsulas of many different sizes. A picture of the coastline of Cape Cod is shown below.

Fractals I am doing fractals next because that is how we usually see non-linear systems. Fractal is a name coined by a fellow by the name of Mandelbrot in the 1960's. Fractals are the branch of geometry dealing with 'broken curves'. Remember that non-linear problems have graphs that have strange and unusual lines or ... 'broken curves'. There are two approaches to fractals: the natural lines (Has anyone ever seen a truly straight line or perfect curve in any natural object?) and the theoretical mathematical constructions. I will start with the lines occurring in nature since everyone here should be familiar with them and finally work our way into the mathematical curves. An object in nature repeats itself. Consider a mountain. A peak on the shoulder of the mountain looks very much the same as the mountain. In fact a rock can be mistaken for a mountain if there is nothing next to it to show its size. A branch of a tree is a miniature of the tree. Some leaves are miniatures of branches. Each tributary of a river is a repetition of the whole river at a smaller scale. This repetition of structure with a change of scale is a characteristic of fractals. If you seem to have any trouble understanding this idea of repetition of structure across scale, rent an old Godzilla movie from the video store. The effect is crude, but the repetition of structure between a branch and a tree, or hill and a mountain can easily be seen. You can also see another feature of natural curves. Although the imaging of structure across scale is very close to being a direct duplication it isn't exact. Waves in a bathtub are not quite the waves in an ocean, although they are very close.
