In turbulent flows the $n$'th order structure functions $S_n(R)$ scale like $R^{\zeta_n}$ when $R$ is in the "inertial range". Extended Self-Similarity refers to the substantial increase in the range of power law behaviour of $S_n(R)$ when…
We discuss a possible theoretical interpretation of the self scaling property of turbulent flows (Extended Self Similarity). Our interpretation predicts that, even in cases when ESS is not observed, a generalized self scaling, must be…
