The aim of this book is to provide a basic and self-contained introduction to the ideas underpinning fractal analysis. The book illustrates some important applications issued from real data sets, real physical and natural phenomena as well as real applications in different fields, and consequently, presents to the readers the opportunity to implement fractal analysis in their specialties according to the step-by-step guide found in the book.Besides advanced undergraduate students, graduate students and senior researchers, this book may also serve scientists and research workers from industrial settings, where fractals and multifractals are required for modeling real-world phenomena and data, such as finance, medicine, engineering, transport, images, signals, among others.For the theorists, rigorous mathematical developments are established with necessary prerequisites that make the book self-containing. For the practitioner often interested in model building and analysis, we provide the cornerstone ideas.

This book is a monograph on harmonic analysis and fractal analysis over local fields. It can also be used as lecture notes/textbook or as recommended reading for courses on modern harmonic and fractal analysis. It is as reliable as Fourier Analysis on Local Fields published in 1975 which is regarded as the first monograph in this research field.The book is self-contained, with wide scope and deep knowledge, taking modern mathematics (such as modern algebra, point set topology, functional analysis, distribution theory, and so on) as bases. Specially, fractal analysis is studied in the viewpoint of local fields, and fractal calculus is established by pseudo-differential operators over local fields. A frame of fractal PDE is constructed based on fractal calculus instead of classical calculus. On the other hand, the author does his best to make those difficult concepts accessible to readers, illustrate clear comparison between harmonic analysis on Euclidean spaces and that on local fields, and at the same time provide motivations underlying the new concepts and techniques. Overall, it is a high quality, up to date and valuable book for interested readers.

The history of describing natural objects using geometry is as old as the advent of science itself, in which traditional shapes are the basis of our intuitive understanding of geometry. However, nature is not restricted to such Euclidean objects which are only characterized typically by integer dimensions. Hence, the conventional geometric approach cannot meet the requirements of solving or analysing nonlinear problems which are related with natural phenomena, therefore, the fractal theory has been born, which aims to understand complexity and provide an innovative way to recognize irregularity and complex systems. Although the concepts of fractal geometry have found wide applications in many forefront areas of science, engineering and societal issues, they also have interesting implications of a more practical nature for the older classical areas of science. Since its discovery, there has been a surge of research activities in using this powerful concept in almost every branch of scientific disciplines to gain deep insights into many unresolved problems. This book includes eight chapters which focus on gathering cutting-edge research and proposing application of fractals features in both traditional scientific disciplines and in applied fields.

A leading pioneer in the field offers practical applications of this innovative science. Peters describes complex concepts in an easy-to-follow manner for the non-mathematician. He uses fractals, rescaled range analysis and nonlinear dynamical models to explain behavior and understand price movements. These are specific tools employed by chaos scientists to map and measure physical and now, economic phenomena.

The application of fractals in the engineering sciences is evolving swiftly and the editors have turned to Springer for the third time to bring you the latest research emerging from the rapid growth in techniques available for the employment of the ideas of fractals and complexity to a variety of disciplines in and associated with the engineering field. The strong potential of this research can be seen in real industrial situations with recent progress being made in areas such as chemical engineering, internet traffic, physics and finance. Image processing continues to be a major field of application for fractal analysis and is well-represented here. It is important to note that the applications models are presented with a firm basis in theoretical argument, the qualitative observation of fractal phenomena no longer being sufficient. Consisting of papers written by a world-wide pool of experts, the multidisciplinary approach of this third volume will be of particular interest to industrial researchers and practitioners as well as to academics from many backgrounds. Fractals in Engineering: New Trends in Theory and Applications continues the publication of engineering-related research in fractal techniques begun in Fractals in Engineering and Fractals: Theory and Applications in Engineering (Springer London 1997 and 1999).

Many are familiar with the beauty and ubiquity of fractal forms within nature. Unlike the study of smooth forms such as spheres, fractal geometry describes more familiar shapes and patterns, such as the complex contours of coastlines, the outlines of clouds, and the branching of trees. In this Very Short Introduction, Kenneth Falconer looks at the roots of the 'fractal revolution' that occurred in mathematics in the 20th century, presents the 'new geometry' of fractals, explains the basic concepts, and explores the wide range of applications in science, and in aspects of economics. This is essential introductory reading for students of mathematics and science, and those interested in popular science and mathematics. ABOUT THE SERIES: The Very Short Introductions series from Oxford University Press contains hundreds of titles in almost every subject area. These pocket-sized books are the perfect way to get ahead in a new subject quickly. Our expert authors combine facts, analysis, perspective, new ideas, and enthusiasm to make interesting and challenging topics highly readable.

In March 2000 leading scientists gathered at the Centro Seminariale Monte Verità, Ascona, Switzerland, for the Third International Symposium on "Fractals 2000 in Biology and Medicine". This interdisciplinary conference provided stimulating contributions from the very topical field Fractals in Biology and Medicine. This volume highlights the growing power and efficacy of the fractal geometry in understanding how to analyze living phenomena and complex shapes.
