A NEW INSIGHT TO THE SCALING-LAW FLUID ASSOCIATED WITH THE MANDELBROT SCALING LAW

ABSTRACT
This paper addresses a non-traditional approach for the scaling-law fluid-flows described by fractal scaling-law vector calculus associated with the Mandelbrot scaling law. Their quantum equations were proposed to control the fluid-flows associated with the Mandelbrot scaling law. This gives a new insight into the descriptions for the scaling-law behaviors of the fluid-flows in the Mandelbrot scaling-law phenomena.
