We consider the problem of the stability of the Navier-Stokes equations in $\mathbb{T}\times \mathbb{R}_+$ near shear flows which are linearly unstable for the Euler equation. In \cite{greniernguyen}, the authors prove an $L^{\infty}$…

The paper presents a theory of shear-generated turbulence at asymptotically high Reynolds numbers. It is based on an ensemble of dipole vortex tubes taken as quasi-particles and realized in form of rings, hairpins or filament couples of…

Fractional Navier-Stokes equations -- featuring a fractional Laplacian -- provide a `bridge' between the Euler equations (zero diffusion) and the Navier-Stokes equations (full diffusion). The problem of whether an initially smooth flow can…

Self-similar Euler singularities may be useful for understanding some aspects of Navier-Stokes turbulence. Here, a causal explanation for intermittency is given, based on the control of the sudden growth of the gradients by the Euler…

Despite the nonlinear nature of wall turbulence, there is evidence that the energy-injection mechanisms sustaining wall turbulence can be ascribed to linear processes. The different scenarios stem from linear stability theory and comprise…

Helicity transfer in a shell model of turbulence is investigated. We show that a Reynolds-independent helicity flux is present in the model when the large scale forcing breaks inversion symmetry. The equivalent in Shell Models of the ``2/15…
