Advances in Fractal Geometry and Applications

This special issue belongs to the section “E2: Control Theory and Mechanics“.

Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Presently, fractal geometry is widely used to model complex structures in systems with very different natures. Fractal geometry provides a quantitative description of complex patterns in real-world systems. The aim of this Special Issue is to survey recent developments and applications of the fractal geometry tools.

We look forward to receiving technical notes, full-length research articles, and review papers from different disciplines. Potential topics include, but are not limited to, the following:

  • Foundations and methods of fractal geometry;
  • Characterization of real-world fractals;
  • Fractal continuum models;
  • Physical phenomena in fractal systems;
  • Fractal approaches in material science;
  • Fractal tools for medical diagnostics;
  • Fractal mathematics in econophysics;
  • Fractal concepts in sociophysics.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Mathematics is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.

Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue

  • Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
  • Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
  • Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
  • External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
  • e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
