摘要
Fractal boundary conditions drastically alter wave excitations. The low-frequency vibrations of a membrane bounded by a rigid fractal contour are observed and localized modes are found. The first lower eigenmodes are computed using an analogy between the wave and the diffusion equations. The fractal frontier induces a strong confinement of the wave analogous to superlocalization. The wave forms exhibit singular derivatives near the boundary.
