Further Developments in Fractals and Related Fields

Julien Barral and Stéphane Seuret

http://www.springer.com/birkhauser/mathematics/book/978-0-8176-8399-3

This volume, following in the tradition of a similar 2010 publication by the same editors, is an outgrowth of an international conference, “Fractals and Related Fields II,” held in June 2011. The book provides readers with an overview of developments in the mathematical fields related to fractals, including original research contributions as well as surveys from many of the leading experts on modern fractal theory and applications.

The chapters cover fields related to fractals such as:

-geometric measure theory
-ergodic theory
-dynamical systems
-harmonic and functional analysis
-number theory
-probability theory

Further Developments in Fractals and Related Fields is aimed at pure and applied mathematicians working in the above-mentioned areas as well as other researchers interested in discovering the fractal domain. Throughout the volume, readers will find interesting and motivating results as well as new avenues for further research.

Table of contents

Keywords: analysis on fractals, ergodic theory and dynamical systems, functional analysis,  geometric measure theory, harmonic analysis, multifractals

Wavelets and Fractals in Earth System Sciences

E. Chandrasekhar, V. M. Dimri and Vikram M. Gadre

http://www.crcpress.com/product/isbn/9781466553590

Features

Summary

Although the applications of wavelets and fractals have increased in scientific and technological fields, including the earth sciences, there are few books devoted to the use of these techniques in the geosciences. This book highlights the role of advanced data processing techniques in current earth system science research. It covers applications of fractals, multifractals, and wavelets that address challenging problems in the earth sciences. It focuses on the continuous wavelet transform technique and uses examples to explain the differences between the wavelet method and other conventional signal processing techniques.

http://www.springerlink.com/content/p75p368712n88u5w/

Abstract

This opening lecture is intended to serve as a propaedeutic for the papers to be presented at this conference whose nonhomogeneous audience includes scientists, mathematicians, engineers and educators. This expository and developmental lecture, a case study of mathematical growth, surveys the origin and development of a mathematical idea from its birth in intellectual curiosity to applications. The fundamental structure of fractional calculus is outlined. The possibilities for the use of fractional calculus in applicable mathematics is indicated. The lecture closes with a statement of the purpose of the conference.

Polynomial operators, Stieltjes convolution, and fractional calculus in hereditary mechanics

R. C. Koeller

Publication information: R. C. Koeller. Polynomial operators, Stieltjes convolution, and fractional calculus in hereditary mechanics. ACTA MECHANICA, Volume 58, Numbers 3-4 (1986), 251-264, DOI: 10.1007/BF01176603.

http://www.springerlink.com/content/lt2p66kw30680171/

Abstract

Fractional calculus is used to describe the general behavior of materials with memory. An expression for the fractional derivative or the fractional integral is developed in terms of the Stieltjes convolution and the Riesz distribution. The general fractional calculus polynomial operator constitutive equation is reduced to a Stieltjes convolution. A constitutive equation which depends on a memory parameter for an isotropic viscoelastic material is presented. The proposed creep compliance has an initial response, a primary creep region, a secondary creep region and a tertiary creep region. The corresponding relaxation modulus has a glassy region, a leathery region, a rubbery region and a liquid region.
