Periodicity:January - June'2020

Abstract

In everyday life, we rarely hear the mysterious word “fractal”, but we encounter them on a daily basis. Nature exhibits fractals in Trees, mountains, snow, plants, and even the circulatory system have fractal structures. Fractals can be applied in various areas from image compression algorithms to the study of blood vessels of living organisms. A fractal is a never-ending pattern. Fractals are infinitely complex patterns that are self-similar across different scales. They are created by repeating a simple process over and over in an ongoing feedback loop. Driven by recursion, fractals are images of dynamic systems – the pictures of Chaos. Geometrically, they exist in between our familiar dimensions. Fractal patterns are extremely familiar, since nature is full of fractals.
