Sustainability is the biggest goal that all areas including building architecture aim at. Sustainability is created by the harmony of buildings to the natural environment in many aspects. In terms of form, biological simulations are considered as a way of learning from natural shapes in order to create the similarities of architecture with nature, contributing to creating the sustainability in aesthetics and structure, in which the geometric language is used as a basic tool for composing the complex form of the work. However, Euclidean geometry, which existed for thousands of years, cannot describe nature correctly and is rated "hard dry" and "cold." In the 1970s, the mathematician Mandelbrot found fractal geometry with a great self-similarity rule, which allowed for precise modeling of many complex structures of nature. After appearing, fractal geometry quickly penetrated into all areas of life, whereas in Vietnam, many people have not known it. This article summarizes the basic knowledge of fractal geometry, its relationship with sustainable historical architectures in Vietnam, and its applicability in drawing biological simulation architectural form that harmonizes the nature, contributing to creating sustainable buildings for the future.
可持续性是建筑等各个领域的最大目标。可持续性是通过建筑在多个方面与自然环境的和谐来实现的。在形式方面，生物模拟被认为是一种从自然形态中学习的方式，以创造建筑与自然的相似性，有助于在美学和结构上创造可持续性，其中几何语言被用作组合作品复杂形式的基本工具。然而，存在了几千年的欧几里得几何并不能正确地描述自然，被评价为“生硬干燥”和“冰冷”。20 世纪 70 年代，数学家 Mandelbrot 发现了具有高度自相似性规则的分形几何，这使得对许多自然的复杂结构进行精确建模成为可能。出现后，分形几何迅速渗透到生活的各个领域，而在越南，许多人还不知道它。本文总结了分形几何的基础知识，以及它与越南可持续历史建筑的关系，以及它在绘制与自然和谐的生物模拟建筑形式中的适用性，有助于为未来创造可持续性的建筑。
