MMW-Fractals

Fractals are complex geometric patterns characterized by self-similarity and infinite complexity, first coined by Benoît B. Mandelbrot in 1975. They have various applications across fields such as computer graphics, wireless communication, medicine, finance, and climate studies. Fractals help model complex systems and are integral to understanding natural phenomena and dynamic behaviors.

WHAT IS
FACTALS ?
WHAT IS
FRACTALS ?
 A fractal is a complex
geometric pattern that
repeats at different scales
(self-similarity).
 Coined by Benoît B.
Mandelbrot in 1975 from
the Latin word "fractus",
meaning “broken” or
“irregular.”
FORMULA FOR
FRACTALS
This equation generates the Mandelbrot
set, one of the most famous fractals.

Where:

• Z represents a complex number.


• C is a constant complex number.
• If “Z” remains bounded, the point
belongs to the Mandelbrot set.
(p.s. there are other formulas beside
this)
Mandelbrot Set
 Mandelbrot Set (infinite complexity)
 known for its infinite complexity and self-
similar structures. It is created by iterating
a simple mathematical equation in the
Mandelbro 
complex number plane.
The Mandelbrot Set is widely used in art,
t Set computer graphics, and mathematical
research, helping scientists understand chaos
theory, complex systems, and dynamic
behaviors in nature.
APPLICATIONS
OF FRACTALS
 Fractals have a wide range of
applications in science,
technology, and nature-inspired
designs. Their self-similar structure
makes them useful for modeling
complex systems.
1. Computer Graphics &
Animation
 Used to generate realistic
landscapes, clouds, and
textures in video games and
movies.
Ex: Fractal-based terrain
generation in CGI.
2. Wireless Communication & Antenna
Design
 Fractal-shaped antennas can
operate at multiple frequencies,
making them more efficient and
compact. Used in cell phones,
satellites, and Wi-Fi networks.
APPLICATIONS OF FRACTALS
3. Medicine & Biology
 Used in medical imaging to analyze blood vessels, lungs, and brain
structures. Helps in tumor detection and understanding cell growth
patterns
4. Stock Market & Finance
 Fractal mathematics helps in analyzing stock market trends. Used in
predicting market fluctuations (Fractal Market Hypothesis).
5. Natural Phenomena & Climate Studies
 Helps in modeling weather patterns, coastlines, and cloud formations.
Used in climate science to predict chaotic behaviors in the environment.
6. Art & Music
 Used in digital art to create complex and mesmerizing patterns. Some music
compositions are inspired by fractal sequences.
CONCLUSION
 Fractals are infinitely complex shapes
that repeat at different scales, found
in both mathematics and nature.
 They are characterized by self-
similarity and can have fractional
dimensions.
 Fractals have wide-ranging
applications, from computer
graphics to medical imaging and
stock market analysis.
