Description: |
The plugin draws simple quadric and Koch fractal contours and a
Sierpinski gasket type fat fractal. The user can specify size, line width, and iterations, and can use colour options
or generate binary files for fractal analysis benchmarks.
The table below illustrates several models that can be generated and lists their theoretical fractal dimensions.
Theoretical Fractal Dimensions
Type | Scaling Rule (ln New Parts/ ln Scale) | = Fractal Dimension |
Koch Line![](images/line.gif) | ln 4/ln 3 | 1.26 |
Koch Flake![](images/koch.gif) | ln 4/ln 3 | 1.26 |
Quadric Flake > | ln 3/ln (√5) | 1.37 |
Quadric Cross![](images/cross.gif) | ln 3.33/ln (√5) | 1.49 |
8-Segment Quadric Fractal![](images/8seg.gif) | ln 8/ln 4 | 1.50 |
18-Segment Quadric Fractal![](images/18seg.gif) | ln 18/ln 6 | 1.61 |
32-Segment Quadric Fractal![](images/32pink.gif) | ln 32/ln 8 | 1.67 |
50-Segment Quadric Fractal![](images/50seg.gif) | ln 50/ln 10 | 1.70 |
