      Probably, yes (see ua-cam.com/video/mgC3gw2kbBE/v-deo.html for a simpler geometry). The fractal geometry might enhance particular high-frequency resonances, though.

      That’s primarily due to absorption effects, which I don’t think are modelled here. This simulation just shows how the reflections lead to the wave energy becoming more diffuse more quickly, as opposed to reaching the shore in one go. The same sooooort of applies in a club, but 3D acoustics are very different so surface acoustics.

The third iteration splits those each in 9 pieces and removes the middle ones. I hope it's clear each iteration multiplies the remaining uncovered area by 8/9.
      after infinite iterations, the leftover area is 8/9^infinity which would be 0, so the shape covers the whole square. Did I get that right?

      Or the opposite, even if adding infinite squares add up to the total area we are aiming, it doesn't mean it ends up being the whole square.
      Easy proof: give some coordinates, the bottom left corner of the container square is (0,0) and top right is (3,3), then our fractal will never contain the point (2,2) (for example, it will never contain many other points, infinitely uncountable points are left out) .

    • @NilsBerglund
      @NilsBerglund  6 місяців тому +3

      A Sierpinski carpet is a fractal, made my dividing a square into 9 equal squares, removing the central square, and repeating the same ad infinitum with the remaining square. What is used here is rather the complement of the fractal, that is, the squares that are removed when making the carpet. The design appears to be quite useful for insulation (from waves or sound).

      A tight unitary 2D Gaussian envelope supress these edge-effects without introducing ripples because of their own response as a filter in the simulated system.
