A team of scientists from Princeton University has measured the energies of electrons in a new class of quantum materials and has found them to follow a fractal pattern. Fractals are self-repeating ...

The Fractal Foundation defines fractals as designs that remain self-similar even if the scale is changed to result in never-ending patterns. In terms of design, fractals are patterns that appear ...

Fractals are patterns that are self-similar on different scales, and they can occur quite naturally. "Take for example a piece of paper crumpled into a ball. If you look at the folds of the paper when ...

Richard Taylor receives funding from The Australian Research Council, The Research Council for Science Advancement, and The WM Keck Foundation. Humans are visual creatures. Objects we call “beautiful” ...

You may not be able to define “fractal” — yet — but fractals are, in fact, everywhere. As you might expect from hearing her title, Hayley Brazier, Donald M. Kerr curator of natural history at the High ...

Nature is brimming with beautiful patterns, like the seemingly complex shapes of snowflakes, coastlines, clouds and seashells. But zoom in, and you'll see fractals, meaning the same, simple pattern ...
