Over the last fifteen years fractal geometry has established itself as a substantial mathematical theory in its own right. The interplay between fractal geometry, analysis and stochastics has highly...

This book collects significant contributions from the fifth conference on Fractal Geometry and Stochastics held in Tabarz, Germany, in March 2014. The book is divided into five topical sections:...

na broad sense Design Science is the grammar of a language of images Irather than of words. Modern communication techniques enable us to transmit and reconstitute images without needing to know a...

This text includes coverage of the following topics: stress-induced crack path in Aji granite under tensile stress; relation of fracture resistance to fabric for granitic rocks; and the mechanisms of...

Concepts and methods of fractal geometry penetrate various branches of human knowledge to an increasing degree. This tendency is particularly striking in the geosciences, because many processes...

n This book deals with several aspects of fractal geometry in ? which are closely connected with Fourier analysis, function spaces, and appropriate (pseudo)differ- tial operators. It emerged quite...

"Fractals in Biology and Medicine" explores the potential of fractal geometry for describing and understanding biological organisms, their development and growth as well as their structural design...

"Fractals in Biology and Medicine, Volume 2" explores the potential of the fractal geometry in understanding how to analyse natural shapes. The volume devotes special emphasis to the complex field of...

In March 2000 leading scientists gathered at the Centro Seminariale Monte Verit?, Ascona, Switzerland, for the Third International Symposium on "Fractals 2000 in Biology and Medicine". This...

This book is a compilation of the presentations given at the Fourth International Symposium on Fractals in Biology and Medicine held in Ascona, Switzerland on - th 13 March 2004 and was dedicated to...

This book considers methods of approximate analysis of mechanical, elec- tromechanical, and other systems described by ordinary differential equa- tions. Modern mathematical modeling of sophisticated...

Algorithmic approach to framelets and wavelets with self-contained proofs and illustrative examples Comprehensive treatments on refinable vector functions and theory of multiframelets/multiwavelets...

Until the mid-twentieth century, topological studies were focused on the theory of suitable structures on sets of points. The concept of open set exploited since the twenties offered an expression of...

The first of a two volume set on novel methods in harmonic analysis, this book draws on a number of original research and survey papers from well-known specialists detailing the latest innovations...

Some extremum and unilateral boundary value problems in viscous hydrodynamics.- On axisymmetric motion of the fluid with a free surface.- On the occurrence of singularities in axisymmetrical problems...

Progress in different fields of mechanics, such as filtra- tion theory, elastic-plastic problems, crystallization pro- cesses, internal and surface waves, etc., is governed to a great extent by the...

Many phenomena of interest for applications are represented by differential equations which are defined in a domain whose boundary is a priori unknown, and is accordingly named a "free boundary". A...

This book collects refereed lectures and communications presented at the Free Boundary Problems Conference (FBP2005). These discuss the mathematics of a broad class of models and problems involving...

This monograph contains a collection of 16 papers that were presented at the confer- ence "Free Boundary Problems: Numerical 7reatment and Optimal Control", held at the Mathematisches...

Among the various theories proposed to account for the process of aging, the free radical theory is of practical interest since it includes the possibility of retarding this process by administrating...

As in so many fields of scientific endeavour following the molecular biology revo- lution, our knowledge of the role of radicals not only in pathological states, but in basic physiology has developed...

Free radical-mediated reactions have been well known in chemistry and physical chemistry for many years. Applying this knowledge to living organisms, biochemists have shown that reactive free...
