For example, tree branches, leaf veins, vascular networks, and many floral patterns, such as cauliflower, follow a fractal structure. Researchers created surfaces that mimic fractal patterns by ...

I’ve felt especially overwhelmed by world events. And once again, I’ve had to relearn that one of the most powerful antidotes ...

Humans share an inherent relationship with nature, and bringing that to spaces is more than just a design trend. Biophilia ...

1. Fractals and Self-Similarity Across Scales Concept: Fractals are patterns that repeat at different scales, like a fern leaf. Nature is full of patterns where if you zoom in and out, you see the ...

The structure can be manipulated to move by a few simple actions: the leaf, i.e., the tip of a branch ... about why does it have the fractal-like appearance of a tree? How much can we say about ...

A quantum version of a fractal pattern, known as "Hofstadter's butterfly," has long been predicted, but the new study marks the first time it has been directly observed experimentally in a real ...

A fractal butterfly pattern produced by an unusual configuration of magnetic fields, first predicted almost 50 years ago, has been seen in detail for the first time in a twisted piece of graphene.

The math concept hidden in this tree art — geometric shapes known as fractals — is apparent in branching patterns in nature and may be key to humans’ ability to recognize such artwork as ...
