However, the local topographic variation cannot be illustrated bythe conventional box-counting method. This paper proposes a successive shift box-counting method,in which the studied object is divided into small sub-objects that are composed of a series of gridsaccording to its characteristic scaling. The terrain fractal dimensions in the grids are calculatedwith the successive shift box-counting method and the scattered points with values of fractaldimensions are obtained. The present research shows that the planar variation of fractal dimensionsis well consistent with fault traces and geological boundaries.展开更多

This dimension agrees with the Hausdorff dimension in the particular case when the scales factors considered are all the same. A more general sufficient condition for the box-counting dimension and the Hausdorff dimension to be the same is given. It is also shown that the dimension of the fractal obtained by combining two fractals is the weighted average of the dimensions of the two fractals.展开更多

[1]. A novel method is used to reach a similar result for an arbitrary fractal function , where is the Riemann-Liouville fractional integral. Furthermore, a general resultis arrived at for 1-dimensional fractal functions such as with unbounded variation and(or) infinite lengths, which can infer all previous studies such as [2] [3]. This paper’s estimation reveals that the fractional integral does not increase the fractal dimension of f(x), i.e. fractional integration does not increase at least the fractal roughness. And the result has partly answered the fractal calculus conjecture and completely answered this conjecture for all 1-dimensional fractal function (Xiao has not answered). It is significant with a comparison to the past researches that the box dimension connection between a fractal function and its Riemann-Liouville integral has been carried out only for Weierstrass type and Besicovitch type functions, and at most Hlder continuous. Here the proof technique for Riemann-Liouville fractional integral is possibly of methodology to other fractional integrals.展开更多

The results indicate that the rotating error motion of the precision rot or is characterized by basic fractional Brownian motions, i.e. randomicity, non -sequencity, and self-simulation insinuation to some extent. Also, this paper calculates the fractal box counting dimension of radial rotating error and judges that the rotor error motion is of stability, indicating that the motion range of the future track of the axes is relatively stable.展开更多

The box-counting fractal dimensions and five representative period parameters of near-fault ground motions from the Chi-Chi and Northridge earthquakes are calculated and compared. Numerical results indicate that the acceleration and velocity time histories of ground motions present the statistical fractal property, and the dominant pulses of near-fault ground motions have a significant influence on their box dimensions and periods. Further, the average box dimension of near-fault impulsive ground motions is smaller, and their irregular degree of wave forms is lower. Moreover, the box dimensions of ground motions reflect their frequency properties to a large extent, and can be regarded as an alternative indicator to represent their frequency content. Finally, the box dimension D of the acceleration histories shows a considerably negative correlation with the mean period T. Meanwhile, the box dimension of the velocity histories Dye is negatively correlated with the characteristic period T and improved characteristic period Tgi.展开更多
