Abstract
A procedure is described for the simulation of clusters and aggregates which are constrained to have a definite fractal dimension. The fract al (Hausdorff-Besicovitch) dimension of the simulated clusters was det ermined for two dimensional projections of clusters using methods base d on the radius of gyration and (1)Voss. The two approaches are compar ed and used to develop a correlation between the fractal dimension of the cluster and its two dimensional projection.
