Fractals are becoming popular for when it comes to designing microwave and radio-frequency antennas thanks to their “self-similarity” that allows the antenna to better collect and focus broadband, ...
One transistor, just a pair of inductors and capacitors. Such a simple electronic circuit can become an oscillator with a surprising richness of behavior. However, even more interesting effects become ...
Remember Grant? The guy who gave out pumpkins on Black Friday? Well he’s back with a whole new game. He and his senior class made an eight-foot Sierpinski Triangle, a “a fractal and attractive fixed ...
(1) Recall the decomposition of the triangle into 4 smaller triangles of size 1/2 the whole triangle (as when we discussed the Sierpinski triangle). Number the small triangles 1 (bottom left), 2 ...
A Sierpinksi carpet is one of the more famous fractal objects in mathematics. Creating one is an iterative procedure. Start with a square, divide it into nine equal squares and remove the central one.
Fractals are geometric objects that are self-similar, i.e., you can break them apart into smaller pieces which are exact (but smaller) replicas of the original object. These smaller pieces in turn, ...
