The evolution and spatial structure of displacement fronts in fractures with self-affine rough walls are studied by numerical simulations. The fractures are open and the two faces are identical but shifted along their mean plane, either…
IFS fractals - the attractors of Iterated Function Systems - have motivated plenty of research to date, partly due to their simplicity and applicability in various fields, such as the modeling of plants in computer graphics, and the design…
A method is proposed for generating compact fractal disordered media, by generalizing the random midpoint displacement algorithm. The obtained structures are invasive stochastic fractals, with the Hurst exponent varying as a continuous…
Fractal behavior and long-range dependence have been observed in an astonishing number of physical systems. Either phenomenon has been modeled by self-similar random functions, thereby implying a linear relationship between fractal…
We define a class of random measures, spatially independent martingales, which we view as a natural generalisation of the canonical random discrete set, and which includes as special cases many variants of fractal percolation and Poissonian…
Contact between an elastic manifold and a rigid substrate with a self-affine fractal surface is reinvestigated with Green's function molecular dynamics. Stress and contact autocorrelation functions (ACFs) are found to decrease…
Transport properties of three-dimensional self-affine rough fractures are studied by means of an effective-medium analysis and numerical simulations using the Lattice-Boltzmann method. The numerical results show that the effective-medium…
Oriented closed curves on an orientable surface with boundary are described up to continuous deformation by reduced cyclic words in the generators of the fundamental group and their inverses. By self-intersection number one means the…
We study numerically the stress distribution on the interface between two thick elastic media bounded by interfaces that include spatially correlated asperities. The interface roughness is described using the self-affine topography that is…
When two bodies get into contact, only a small portion of the apparent area is actually involved in producing contact and friction forces, because of the surface roughnesses. It is therefore crucial to accurately describe the morphology of…
Present article deals with trajectorial intersections in linear fractional systems ('systems'). We propose a classification of intersections of trajectories in three classes viz. trajectories intersecting at same time(EIST), trajectories…

This thesis generalizes the study of $C\cap(C + \alpha)$ where $C$ is the middle third Cantor set to self-affine sets in $\mathbb{R}^{n}$. We present sufficient and necessary conditions for when the translation $\alpha$ produces a…
We study the structure of the smooth manifold which is defined as the intersection of a stable manifold and an unstable manifold for an invariant Morse-Smale function.
We consider the intersections of fractal k-cubes of order n and intersections of their respective opposite l-faces. The main result of the paper is the theorem on representation of such intersection as the attractor of a graph-directed…
We investigate the large intersection properties of the set of points that are approximated at a certain rate by a family of affine subspaces. We then apply our results to various sets arising in the metric theory of Diophantine…
We study the fluctuations of self-intersection counts of random geodesic segments of length $t$ on a compact, negatively curved surface in the limit of large $t$. If the initial direction vector of the geodesic is chosen according to the…
We study the scaling properties of the solid-on-solid front of the infinite cluster in two-dimensional gradient percolation. We show that such an object is self affine with a Hurst exponent equal to 2/3 up to a cutoff-length proportional to…
The fractional stable motion is a prototypical stochastic process exhibiting both heavy tails and long-range dependence, parameterized via a stability index $\alpha$ and a Hurst exponent $H$. We consider a nonstationary extension where the…
