Physics of Fractal Operators Hardback
by Bruce West, Mauro Bologna, Paolo Grigolini
Part of the Institute for Nonlinear Science series
Hardback
Description
This text describes the statistcal behavior of complex systems and shows how the fractional calculus can be used to model the behavior.
The discussion emphasizes physical phenomena whose evolution is best described using the fractional calculus, such as systems with long-range spatial interactions or long-time memory.
The book gives general strategies for understanding wave propagation through random media, the nonlinear response of complex materials, and the fluctuations of heat transport in heterogeneous materials.
