Chaos and fractals : a computer graphical journey : ten year compilation of advanced research /

Mostrar otras versiones (1)

These days computer-generated fractal patterns are everywhere, from squiggly designs on computer art posters to illustrations in the most serious of physics journals. Interest continues to grow among scientists and, rather surprisingly, artists and designers. This book provides visual demonstrations...
