A Study on Application of Fractal Theory in Examination of Striation Marks

摘要

Use scissors and cutting pliers to produce some striation marks. The data collection apparatus is used to collect the surface data of such marks produced by scissors and cutting pliers, and then get the profile curve that is vertical to the surface of striation marks. In tha application of fractal theory, the fractal dimension of such a profile curve is then calculated, and further studies are made on its fractal characteristics. As an exploration on tool types and individual identification, this is aimed to provide a new theory and approach to examination and identification of striation tool marks.
