Abstract
“Fractals” and “chaos” are two of the most popularized scientific or mathematical concepts and terminologies these days. They have become the most uttered words of the scientific community and even of the popular press. Fractal geometry liberates the analysis of the shapes of natural objects from the tyranny of straight lines, flat planes, and regular solids. Mandelbrot [1] has stated, “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.” One way to envision fractals is to think of them as objects, each with a fractional dimension. In fact, fractals are almost the rule rather than exception in this universe. The exceptions are perfect lines, planes, and cubes.
