By assimilating biological systems, both structural and functional, into multifractal objects, their behavior can be described in the framework of the scale relativity theory, in any of its forms (standard form in Nottale’s sense and/or the form of the multifractal theory of motion). By operating in the context of the multifractal theory of motion, based on multifractalization through non-Markovian stochastic processes, the main results of Nottale’s theory can be generalized (specific momentum conservation laws, both at differentiable and non-differentiable resolution scales, specific momentum conservation law associated with the differentiable–non-differentiable scale transition, etc.). In such a context, all results are explicated through analyzing biological processes, such as acute arterial occlusions as scale transitions. Thus, we show through a biophysical multifractal model that the blocking of the lumen of a healthy artery can happen as a result of the “stopping effect” associated with the differentiable-non-differentiable scale transition. We consider that blood entities move on continuous but non-differentiable (multifractal) curves. We determine the biophysical parameters that characterize the blood flow as a Bingham-type rheological fluid through a normal arterial structure assimilated with a horizontal “pipe” with circular symmetry. Our model has been validated based on experimental clinical data.

Instruments for measuring time by vibratory motion were invented early in the sixteenth century: the single pendulum had been known to afford a very exact measure of time long before this period; yet it appears from the testimony of historical accounts, as well as other evidences, that the balance was universally adopted in the construction of the first clocks and watches; nor was it till the year 1657 that Mr. Huygens united pendulums with clock-work. The first essays of an invention, formed on principles at once new and complicated, we may suppose were imperfectly executed. In the watches of the early constructions, some of which are still preserved, the balance vibrated merely by the impulses of the wheels, without other control or regulation: the motion communicated to the balance by one impulse continued till it was destroyed, partly by friction, and partly by a succeeding impulse in the opposite direction; the vibrations must of course have been very unsteady and irregular.

We use the recently introduced factorization theory of motion polynomials over the dual quaternions and cubic interpolation on quadrics for the synthesis of closed kinematic loops with six revolute joints that visit four prescribed poses. The resulting 6R linkages are special in the sense that the relative motions of all links are rational. They exhibit certain elegant properties such as symmetry in the rotation angles and, at least in theory, full-cycle mobility. Our synthesis approach admits either no solution or two one-parametric families of solutions. We suggest strategies for picking good solutions from these families. They ensure a fair coupler motion and optimize other linkage characteristics such as total rotation angle or linkage size. A comprehensive synthesis example is provided.
