A basic issue for Navier-Stokes (NS) fluids is their characterization in terms of the so-called NS phase-space classical dynamical system, which provides a mathematical model for the description of the dynamics of infinitesimal (or…

Understanding turbulence is the key to our comprehension of many natural and technological flow processes. At the heart of this phenomenon lies its intricate multi-scale nature, describing the coupling between different-sized eddies in…

Through a discussion of some typical unsteady hydrodynamic flows, we argue that the time averaged hydrodynamic functions at each point give a rather sparse filling of the local jet space. This situation then suggests a set of time dependent…
