The Essence of Turbulence as a Physical Phenomenon With Emphasis on Issues of Paradigmatic Nature /
This book critically reexamines what turbulence really is, from a fundamental point of view and based on observations from nature, laboratories, and direct numerical simulations. It includes critical assessments and a comparative analysis of the key developments, their evolution and failures, along...
