We are concerned with the inviscid limit of the Navier-Stokes equations to the Euler equations for compressible fluids in $\mathbb{R}^3$. Motivated by the Kolmogorov hypothesis (1941) for incompressible flow, we introduce a Kolmogorov-type…

The addition of suitable volume forces to the Navier-Stokes equation allows to simulate flows in the presence of a homogeneous shear. Because of the explicit form of the driving the flows are accessible to rigorous mathematical treatment…
We consider the steady-state statistics of turbulence sustained by a large-scale force. The Kolmogorov flux relation (4/5-law) is shown to be a particular case of the general relation on the current-density correlation function. Using that,…

Equations that follow from the Navier-Stokes equation and incompressibility but with no other approximations are called "exact" here. Exact equations relating 2nd and 3rd-order structure functions are obtained, as is an exact…
