| Abstract: | Temporal fractal sets for analysis of viscoelastic properties of nonhomogeneous media are considered. A fractional derivative directly related to fractal dimension is constructed. The relationship between the diffusion of the relaxation spectrum and the fractal dimension is established. Odessa State Polytechnical University, Odessa 270044, Ukraine.
