Matt Metcalf is spending his summer doing math and hoping for a “Eureka!” moment. His ultimate goal is to generate original fractal tilings, they study of which may someday be used by video game ...

Students investigate fractals, learn how fractals can be used to determine the length of a coastline, and explore the expression of mathematical principles in art. state some of the characteristics of ...

The nature and properties of materials depend strongly on dimension. Imagine how different life in a one-dimensional or two-dimensional world would be from the three dimensions we’re commonly ...

The solutions proposed by fractal mathematics have led various branches of human endeavor to incorporate them into their workings. People have begun to see the world in fractals, non-integer ...

Researchers have uncovered an altogether new type of fractal appearing in a class of magnets called spin ices. The discovery was surprising because the fractals were seen in a clean three-dimensional ...
