S’applique aux changements spatio-temporels tels le bruit électronique dans les semi-conducteurs, les fluctuations de voltage dans les membranes neurales, les crues périodiques des eaux, les variations des indices économiques et du trafic routier, les battements du cœur, etc. Selon B. Mandelbrot, créateur du terme en 1975, le concept n’a pas encore de définition mathématique généralement acceptée. Le terme est dérivé du latin «fractus» qui signifie «fragmenté», «irrégulier». Le masculin pluriel est «fractals», le féminin pluriel, fractales». 3, record 1, French, - fractale
