Energetic processes in macroscopic fractal structures

Macroscopic fractal systems, aerogel and fractal fiber, have a high specific surface energy. Mechanisms of the process of structure densification which leads to the transformation of the surface energy into thermal energy are considered. Transport processes inside macroscopic fractal systems are investigated. Conditions of the thermal explosion and the character of propagation of the thermal wave inside these systems are analyzed.
