MODEL OF MOISTURE DIFFUSION IN FRACTAL MEDIA

ABSTRACT
Moisture diffusion in fractal media does not obey the classical Fick's law. In this paper, its fractal partner is proposed to investigate the phenomenon in fractal media. It reveals that the moisture transport strongly depends on fractal dimensions of the media.
