Brownian motion diverges as the window shrinks, thus rendering the calculation a singular perturbation problem. Brownian motion Brownian motion or pedesis (from "leaping") is the random motion of particles suspended in a fluid (a liquid or a gas) resulting from their collision with the fast-moving molecules in the fluid. This pattern of motion typically alternates random fluctuations in a particle's position inside a fluid sub-domain with a relocation to another sub-domain. Each relocation is followed by more fluctuations within the new closed volume. This pattern describes a fluid at thermal equilibrium, defined by a given temperature. Within such fluid there exists no
Brownian surface Brownian surface A Brownian surface is a fractal surface generated via a fractal elevation function. For instance, in the three-dimensional case, where two variables "X" and "Y" are given as coordinates, the elevation function between any two points ("x", "y") and ("x", "y") can be set to have a mean or expected value that increases as the vector distance between ("x", "y") and ("x", "y"). There are, however, many ways of defining the elevation function. For instance, the fractional Brownian motion variable may be used, or various rotation functions may be used to achieve more natural looking surfaces. As with
