Fractal silver structures grown by electrochemical reduction of silver nitrate on a fluorine-doped tin oxide film. These structures could be the basis of a new type of solar cell. Microscopic “fractal ...

Fractal geometry is a field of math born in the 1970s and mainly developed by Benoit Mandelbrot. If you’ve already heard of fractals, you’ve probably seen the picture above. It’s called the Mandelbrot ...

Sometimes there are projects that we introduce with a bit of context, some background, and other times as with [RayP2]’s fractal papercraft tree, we introduce them simply because they are beautiful.

Fractals are a source of endless fascination to me. Life itself relies on many of the concepts of fractals: trees are fractal, as are feathers, coast lines, and many other things in nature. Indeed, it ...

A research team has developed an innovative three-dimensional (3D) tree modeling method that dramatically improves accuracy ...

Many people look at trees to relax, taking in the soothing fractal patterns to adjust their eyes from too many hours spent at ...

You may quickly recognize that many other natural structures besides trees are fractals: Neurons, rivers, the respiratory system, the circulatory system, geological fault lines, snowflakes, and so on.
