1. A Structural Analysis of the Fracture Sets in Gothenburg, Sweden: A Remote Sensing and Manual Lineament Approach
University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaperAbstract : The fracture-valley landscape within the Gothenburg region was analysed based on LiDAR-derived hillshade images as well as several sources of orthomosaics. Using a manual lineament interpretation approach and complimented with an objective fractal analysis software (FROST), the objective of the study was to characterise the regional fracture sets as well as attempt to link the sets to the complex regional geological history.

3. An empirical study on measuring the degree of life in cities
University essay from Högskolan i Gävle/SamhällsbyggnadAbstract : Our direct environment affects our lives directly.

4. How to Avoid Bankruptcy?: Monte Carlo Simulation of Three Financial Markets, using the Multifractal Model of Asset Returns
University essay from Handelshögskolan i Stockholm/Institutionen för finansiell ekonomiAbstract : This paper has been an effort to apply fractal mathematics to understanding the general behaviour of financial markets. Fractals are special shapes that look similar at various scales. The specific model used is called the Multifractal Model of Asset Returns (MMAR) - the first ever model used for multifractal financial analysis. READ MORE

5. Fractal Sets: Dynamical, Dimensional and Topological Properties
University essay from KTH/Skolan för teknikvetenskap (SCI)Abstract : Fractals is a relatively new mathematical topic which received thorough treatment only starting with 1960's. Fractals can be observed everywhere in nature and in day-to-day life. To give a few examples, common fractals are the spiral cactus, the romanesco broccoli, human brain and the outline of the Swedish map. READ MORE
