EMERGENT NATURE
Patterns, Growth and Scaling in the Sciences
edited by Miroslav M Novak (Kingston University, UK)
This book, based on presentations made at the international conference Fractals 2002, is of interest to everyone in the general field of nonlinear dynamics. The abundance of papers from numerous disciplines makes it exciting reading and provides a unifying thread through the topics, such as ray tracing, structure of peptides, modeling fractal surfaces, cancer growth, macaque monkey cortical neurons, occurrence of earthquakes, and patterns of the World Wide Web.
Contents:
- Modeling Cerebellar Dynamics (M G Velarde et al.)
- Two and Three
Dimensional Computer Simulation of Cancer Growth (S Flores Ascencio et al.)
- Structural and Dynamic Complexity of an Elastin-Related Peptide (A Bonelli et al.)
- Cumulative Effective Hölder Exponent Based Indicator for Real-Time Fetal Heartbeat Analysis During Labour (Z R Struzik & W J van Wijngaarden)
- Fractal Features in the Nonstationarity of Physiological Time Series (P Ch Ivanov et al.)
- Fractal Analysis of Aggregates of Non-Uniformly Sized Particles: An Application to Macaque Monkey Cortical Pyramidal Neurons (B I Henry et al.)
- Dynamics of Solar Magnetic Field from Synoptic Charts (N G Makarenko & L M Karimova)
- Side-Branching in the Nonlinear Zone: A Self-Similar Region in Dendritic Crystal Growth (R González-Cinca)
- and other papers
Readership: Researchers in nonlinear science.
