| Description: |
Representing new developments in this field of research, the volume contains a variety of papers that address the growth patterns of sponges and corals, the stability of ships on sea surfaces, the modelling of land patterns and the application of fractals to art, medicine and camouflage. |
| Synopsis: |
Applications of Fractals and Chaos presents new developments in this rapidlydeveloping subject area. The presentation is more than merely theoretical, it specifically presents particular applications in a wide range of applications areas. Under the oceans, we consider the ways in which sponges and corals grow; we look, too, at the stability of ships on their surfaces. Land itself is modelled and applications to art, medicineand camouflage are presented. Readers should find general interest in the range of areas considered and should also be able to discover methods of value for their own specific areas of interest from studying the structure of related activities. |
