This paper presents a computer model of diffusion limited aggregation (DLA) in percolation cluster. Simulation of the aggregation clusters in percolation cluster with varying occupancy probability is performed, and their fractal dimension and multifractal spectrum are obtained. The simulation results show that the percolation cluster has stronger effects on the aggregation clusters' pattern structure when occupancy probability is smaller. The dimension Df of aggregation clusters increases together with the increase of occupancy probability. Furthermore, the multifractal spectra f(α) curve becomes higher and the range of singularity α wilder. The bigger the occupancy probability is, the more irregular and non-uniform the aggregation clusters becomes.

AbstractWe present a novel correlation scheme to characterize the morphology of fractal and hierarchical patterns beyond traditional scaling. The method consists of analysing correlations between more than two-points in logarithmic coordinates. This technique has several advantages: i) It can be used to quantify the currently vague concept of morphology; ii) It allows to distinguish between different signatures of structures with similar fractal dimension but different morphologies already for relatively small systems; iii) The method is sensitive to oscillations in logarithmic coordinates, which are both admissible solutions for renormalization equations and which appear in many branching patterns (e.g., noise-reduced diffusion-limited-aggregation and bronchial structures); iv) The methods yields information on corrections to scaling from the asymptotic behavior, which is very useful in finite size analysis. Markovian processes are calculated exactly and several structures are analyzed by this method to demonstrate its advantages.

We report the observation of fractal patterns in C60-tetracyanoquinodimethane thin films. The fractal patterns and their microscopic features are described and characterized. The fractal dimension was determined to be 1.69 ± 0.07. According to the characterization results, the observed fractals are compared to the cluster-diffusion-limited-aggregation model. The growth of the fractal patterns in the thin films is also in terms of the existing long-range correlation.

AbstractIn order to understand better the morphology and the asymptotic behavior in Diffusion Limited Aggregation (DLA), we studied a large numbers of very large off-lattice circular clusters. We inspected both dynamical and geometric asymptotic properties, namely the moments of the particle's sticking distances and the scaling behavior of the transverse growth crosscuts, i.e., the one dimensional cuts by circles. The emerging picture for radial DLA departs from simple self-similarity for any finite size. It corresponds qualitatively to the scenario of infinite drift starting from the familiar five armed shape for small sizes and proceeding to an increasingly tight multi-armed shape. We show quantitatively how the lacunarity of circular clusters becomes increasingly “compact” with size. Finally, we find agreement among transverse cuts dimensions for clusters grown in different geometries, suggesting that the question of universality is best addressed on the crosscut.

The multifractal analysis of one time series, e.g. crude oil, gold and exchange rate series, is often referred. In this paper, we apply the classical multifractal and mixed multifractal spectrum to study multifractal properties of crude oil, gold and exchange rate series and their inner relationships. The obtained results show that in general, the fractal dimension of gold and crude oil is larger than that of exchange rate (RMB against the US dollar), reflecting a fact that the price series in gold and crude oil are more heterogeneous. Their mixed multifractal spectra have a drift and the plot is not symmetric, so there is a low level of mixed multifractal between each pair of crude oil, gold and exchange rate series.
