Abstract
In the previous chapters, we mainly dealt with fractal patterns, distributions, and time series. The approach was a rather descriptive one; the ideas on the origin of fractals were rather mathematical algorithms than physical processes. In the following we will focus on non-linear processes in order to see whether they contribute anything to our understanding of fractals.
