Fractal dimension, attractors, and the boussinesq approximation in three dimensions

Fractal dimension, attractors, and the boussinesq approximation in three dimensions The Boussinesq approximation, where the viscosity depends polynomially on the shear rate, finds more and more frequent use in geological practice.

Abstract

The Boussinesq approximation, where the viscosity depends polynomially on the shear rate, finds more and more frequent use in geological practice. In the paper, this modified Boussinesq approximation is investigated as a dynamical system for which the existence of a global attractor is proved. Finally, a new criterion for estimating the fractal dimension of invariant sets is formulated and its application to the problem under consideration is illustrated.
