A new iterative approach to fractal models

Abstract: Mandelbrot is best appreciated for his broad attempt to describe irregular shapes in nature. He founded fractal geometry in 1975. Subsequently the whole fractal theory developed using one-step feedback systems. In 2002, an attempt was made to study and analyze fractal objects using two-step feedback systems. Researchers used superior iteration methods to implement two-step feedback systems. This was the beginning of a new iterative approach in the study of fractal models, and it seems promising to extend fractal theory. The purpose of this paper is to present a review of literature in fractal analysis using this new iterative approach and explore its potential applications. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
