They are made by a simple formula, yet they have such beautiful and complex designs. This page provides simple Mathematica code for many of the most interesting types of fractals. Some of this code may not be very efficient, but it should be enough to give you a basic understanding of the mathematics involved.

Please bear with me and things should be back to normal within the next couple of days. Fran, 16th January 2008 LATEST IMAGES OF MY IMAGINATION Fractals are graphic representations of mathematical equations. Without the aid of a computer to generate the graphics from the equations, these mathematical objects would remain invisible. Traditionally flame fractals have always been particularly beautiful because of their ethereal quality. But in recent times, with the advent of many new marvellous scripts, new previously unimagined forms are now available. Many of my images are actually collages of individual flame fractals. Most of these flames are made in Apophysis, though a few of the earliest ones were made in the Gimp using it's flame plugin. Therefore, all the elements that you see, for example, the trees, plants, stars, etc. are flame fractals. These are opened in my graphics programme and then arranged to make the final picture. On a rare occassion I may sharpen a flame if it is warranted, but I don't add any extra effects as I like their purity.

Name URL or Email Messages( smilies I treat fractal images as a photographer would treat a landscape, incorporating design and color composition into each piece. I call the process "Fractography". The process of my art differs from photography, however, in that I can alter the subject matter. I utilize happy accidents when I tweak and fiddle with the intial images and parameters. Then I pursue the image with focus and intensity though complex fractals require an investment in time and patience while they render. Allowing for serendipity makes fractography an art process more akin to watercolor painting and just as exciting for me. It is a process of discovery that uses layers of data like glazing and double glazing on canvas. As I adjust parameters and alter palettes I am betting that the resultant image is an improvement over the previous one. I do not stop until I love the results. Most images were created on a PC with Fractal eXtreme and, most recently

50. Fantastic Fractals But it turns out that fractals are an excellent tool for math teachers. At least that s the opinion of fractal fan Cynthia Lanius, a math teacher at Milby http://whyfiles.org/046sci_project/fractal.html

Fractals aren't just cool they're comely. Fun with fractals If you think mathematics ricochets between the ancient and the mystical, never halting at the useful or comprehensible, if you think half of math was perfected by Euclid and Newton, and the other half can't be comprehended without a Ph.D., meet fractals. These geometric shapes are formed by repetition: Take a shape, do something to it, then do it again for as long as you want. Fractals generally start simple enough, but they can get hideously complicated. But it turns out that fractals are an excellent tool for math teachers. At least that's the opinion of fractal fan Cynthia Lanius , a math teacher at Milby High School, Houston, Texas. For one thing, she says, fractals make the shapes seen in nature. "You don't see a lot of triangles, squares or rectangles in the woods," but fractals show up in everything from cumulus clouds to fern fronds. For another, they are a field of modern math research that students can grasp. "Kids think that all mathematics was learned 500 years ago, that math is a dead study like Latin is a 'dead' language. I want them to understand that there are people living, breathing, and making a living as math researchers." Ten years ago, Lanius became captivated by fractals. When she consulted the web, she found the sites were either way too technical for her high-school students, or they were just pretty pictures with no explanations. So in June, 1996, Lanius created her own set of

51. Fractals & The Fractal Dimension It could be a fraction, as it is in fractal geometry. This generalized treatment of dimension is named after the German mathematician, Felix Hausdorff. http://www.vanderbilt.edu/AnS/psychology/cogsci/chaos/workshop/Fractals.html

Fractals and the Fractal Dimension Mandelbrot and Nature "Clouds are not spheres, mountains are not cones, coastlines are not circles, and bark is not smooth, nor does lightning travel in a straight line."(Mandelbrot, 1983). The Concept of Dimension So far we have used "dimension" in two senses: The three dimensions of Euclidean space (D=1,2,3) The number of variables in a dynamic system Fractals, which are irregular geometric objects, require a third meaning: The Hausdorff Dimension If we take an object residing in Euclidean dimension D and reduce its linear size by 1/r in each spatial direction, its measure (length, area, or volume) would increase to N=r D times the original. This is pictured in the next figure. We consider N=r D , take the log of both sides, and get log(N) = D log(r). If we solve for D. D = log(N)/log(r) The point: examined this way, D need not be an integer, as it is in Euclidean geometry. It could be a fraction, as it is in fractal geometry. This generalized treatment of dimension is named after the German mathematician, Felix Hausdorff. It has proved useful for describing natural objects and for evaluating trajectories of dynamic systems. The length of a coastline Mandelbrot began his treatise on fractal geometry by considering the question: "How long is the coast of Britain?" The coastline is irregular, so a measure with a straight ruler, as in the next figure, provides an estimate. The estimated length, L, equals the length of the ruler, s, multiplied by the N, the number of such rulers needed to cover the measured object. In the next figure we measure a part of the coastline twice, the ruler on the

Ivars Peterson's MathTrek February 10, 1997 Pascal's Fractals Fascinating patterns can arise out of arrays of numbers defined by simple rules. For example, start with the number 1, and make it the apex of what will become a triangle of numbers. In the second row, write two 1s. For each subsequent line, add together adjacent numbers of the previous row and write the sums in the new row, then place 1s at both ends of the line. Here's what one gets for the first eight rows: This set of numbers is now widely known as Pascal's triangle, named for French philosopher and mathematician Blaise Pascal (1623-1662), who studied it intensively. Pascal, however, was not the first to identify the pattern. The mathematician, astronomer, and poet Omar Khayyam (1048-1122) described this number triangle in his writings. It was also well-known to the Chinese. A nine-row version was featured prominently in the introduction to the book "Precious Mirror of the Four Elements," which appeared in 1303. The book's author refers to the triangle as a "diagram of the old method for finding eighth and lower powers." Indeed, the triangle represents a simple way to determine, for example, that (

In order to understand fractals you need to understand a little bit of mathematics concerning complex numbers and the process of iteration. First you need to know about the special number known as i . You can do arithmetic with i . A complex numbe r is a number made up of two parts added together. These parts are called the "real" part and the "imaginary" part . Examples of complex numbers are: 4 - 6i, 2.1 + 4.7i, 1-i, and so on... In fact any number of the form a + bi, where a and b are real numbers, and i is as above, is a complex number. Addition and multiplication of these numbers is achieved using the conventional rules of algebra. Complex numbers have a size. It is usually called their
