Multirange Fractals in Materials: Applications to Fracture and Mechanical Alloying under Ball Milling

A new model of multirange fractals is proposed to explain the experimental results observed on the fractal dimensions of the fractured surfaces in materials. A new expIanation to the WilIiford’s multifractal curve on the relationship of fractal dimension with fracture properties in materials has been given. It shows the importance of fractorizing out the effect of fractal structure from other physical causes and separating the appropriate range of scale from multirange fractals.Mechanical alloying process under ball milling as a non-equilibrium dynamical system has been also

Multirange Fractal Analysis on the Negative Correlation between Fractal Dimension of Fractured Surface and Toughness of Materials

Applying the concept of multirange fractals, a new explanation to the Williford’s multifractal curve on the relationship of fractal dimension with fracture properties in materials has been given. It 5hows the importance of factorizing out the effect of fractal structure from other physical causes and separating the appropriate range of scale from multirange
