For strictly self-similar mathematical fractals, such as the Sierpinski gasket and the Cantor dust, the mass dimension is the same as the Hausdorff dimension (and any other fractal dimension considered here). They are all given by the similarity dimension of the scaling law, defined by the initiator and the generator that generates the fractal. 2, record 2, English, - scaling%20law
