FRACTALS-COMPLEX GEOMETRY PATTERNS AND SCALING IN NATURE AND SOCIETY
In this paper, several features of pore-size soil distribution are first an
alyzed, suggesting that they are closer to those of singular measures than
to those of distributions with smooth density. In a second step, the weight
ed singularity strength of an experimental measure obtained by image analys
is of soil samples is evaluated. The results of this analysis show the sing
ular nature of pore-size distribution. Finally, the distribution is charact
erized by means of a spectrum of entropies computed on distorted measures a
ssociated with the original experimental measure.
