We deal with the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations, in two and three dimensions, when some vortex patches are prescribed as initial data i.e. when there is an internal boundary across which the vorticity is discontinuous. We show…
Discrete mechanics is presented as an alternative to the equations of fluid mechanics, in particular to the Navier-Stokes equation. The derivation of the discrete equation of motion is built from the intuitions of Galileo, the principles of…

Exact equations are derived that relate velocity structure functions of arbitrary order with other statistics. "Exact" means that no approximations are used except that the Navier-Stokes equation and incompressibility condition are assumed…
