Fractals Everywhere
Focusing on how fractal geometry can be used to model real objects in the physical world, this up-to-date edition features two 16-page full-color inserts, problems and tools emphasizing fractal applications, and an answers section. A bonus CD of an IFS Generator provides an excellent software tool for designing iterated function systems codes and fractal images.
Fractals Everywhere
This volume is the second edition of the highly successful Fractals Everywhere. The Focus of this text is how fractal geometry can be used to model real objects in the physical world. This edition of Fractals Everywhere is the most up-to-date fractal textbook available today. Fractals Everywhere may be supplemented by Michael F. Barnsley's Desktop Fractal Design System (version 2.0) with IBM for Macintosh software. The Desktop Fractal Design System 2.0 is a tool for designing Iterated Function Systems codes and fractal images, and makes an excellent supplement to a course on fractal geometry * A new chapter on recurrent iterated function systems, including vector recurrent iterated function systems. * Problems and tools emphasizing fractal applciations. * An all-new answer key to problems in the text, with solutions and hints.

Fractals Everywhere, Second Edition covers the fundamental approach to fractal geometry through iterated function systems. This 10-chapter text is based on a course called "Fractal Geometry", which has been taught in the School of Mathematics at the Georgia Institute of Technology. After a brief introduction to the subject, this book goes on dealing with the concepts and principles of spaces, contraction mappings, fractal construction, and the chaotic dynamics on fractals. Other chapters discuss fractal dimension and interpolation, the Julia sets, parameter spaces, and the Mandelbrot sets. The remaining chapters examine the measures on fractals and the practical application of recurrent iterated function systems. This book will prove useful to both undergraduate and graduate students from many disciplines, including mathematics, biology, chemistry, physics, psychology, mechanical, electrical, and aerospace engineering, computer science, and geophysical science.
