Many natural objects have been found to be fractal and fractal
mathematics has been used to generate many beautiful "nature"
scenes. Fractal mathematics is used in image compression and for
movies and is now becoming an engineering tool as well. This book
describes the application of fractal mathematics to one engineering
specialty - reservoir engineering. This is the process of
engineering the production of oil and gas. The reservoir engineer's
job is to design and predict production from underground oil and
gas reservoirs. The successful application of fractal mathematics
to this engineering discipline should be of interest, not only to
reservoir engineers, but to other engineers with their own
potential applications as well. Geologists will find surprisingly
good numerical descriptions of subsurface rock distributions.
Physicists will be interested in the application of renormalization
and percolation theory described in the book. Geophysicists will
find the description of fluid flow scaling problems faced by the
reservoir engineer similar to their problems of scaling the
transport of acoustic signals.
