Turbulence is a non-local phenomenon and has multiple-scales. Non-locality can be addressed either implicitly or explicitly. Implicitly, by subsequent resolution of all spatio-temporal scales. However, if directly solved for the temporal or…

Numerical simulations of turbulence provide non-intrusive access to all the resolved scales, although they often invoke idealizations that can compromise realism. In contrast, experimental measurements probe the true flow with lesser…
