This volume contains the Proceedings of the Special Seminar on: FRAGTALS held from October 9-15, 1988 at the Ettore Majorana Centre for Scientific Culture, Erice (Trapani), Italy. The concepts of self-similarity and scale invariance have arisen independently in several areas. One is the study of critical properites of phase transitions; another is fractal geometry, which involves the concept of (non-integer) fractal dimension. These two areas have now come together, and their methods have extended to various fields of physics. The purpose of this Seminar was to provide an overview of the recent developments in the field. Most of the contributions ... Read more

Reviews for Fractals' Physical Origin and Properties
From Book News, Inc. Proceedings of the Special Seminar on Fractals, held October 1988, in Erice, Italy. Most of the contributions are theoretical, but some experimental work is also included. They discuss multifractals and turbulence, fractal properties of critical fluctuations and polymers, general features of fractal growth models, the application of those models to physical phenomena, diffusion and vibrations ...
