We study a correspondence between the multifractal model of turbulence and the Navier-Stokes equations in $d$ spatial dimensions by comparing their respective dissipation length scales. In Kolmogorov's 1941 theory the key parameter $h$,…
We review the Parisi-Frisch MultiFractal formalism for Navier--Stokes turbulence with particular emphasis on the issue of statistical fluctuations of the dissipative scale. We do it for both Eulerian and Lagrangian Turbulence. We also show…
The rich multifractal properties of fluid turbulence illustrated by the work of Parisi and Frisch are related explicitly to Leray's weak solutions of the three-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations. Directly from this correspondence it is…
Mathematical estimates for the Navier-Stokes equations are traditionally expressed in terms of the Grashof number, which is a dimensionless measure of the magnitude of the forcing and hence a control parameter of the system. However,…
Turbulent flows exhibit large intermittent fluctuations from inertial to dissipative scales, characterized by multifractal statistics and breaking the statistical self-similarity. It has recently been proposed that the Navier-Stokes…
We report on a comparison of high-resolution numerical simulations of Lagrangian particles advected by incompressible turbulent hydro- and magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) flows. Numerical simulations were performed with up to $1024^3$ collocation…
We present measurements of relativistic scaling relations in $(2+1)$-dimensional conformal fluid turbulence from direct numerical simulations, in the weakly compressible regime. These relations were analytically derived previously in…
We show here the global, in time, regularity of the three dimensional viscous Camassa-Holm (Lagrangian Averaged Navier-Stokes-alpha) equations. We also provide estimates, in terms of the physical parameters of the equations, for the…
We report that many exact invariant solutions of the Navier-Stokes equations for both pipe and channel flows are well represented by just few modes of the model of McKeon & Sharma J. Fl. Mech. 658, 356 (2010). This model provides modes that…
Following the Gallavotti's conjecture, Stationary states of Navier-Stokes fluids are proposed to be described equivalently by alternative equations besides the NS equation itself. We propose a model system symmetric under time-reversal…
The NS equation is considered (in 2 & 3 dimensions) with a fixed forcing on large scale; the stationary states form a family of probability distributions on the fluid velocity fields depending on a parameter R (Reynolds number). It is…
We review the properties of the nonlinearly dispersive Navier-Stokes-alpha (NS-alpha) model of incompressible fluid turbulence -- also called the viscous Camassa-Holm equations and the LANS equations in the literature. We first re-derive…
The Navier-Stokes (NS) equations as a turbulence model have been widely applied in lots of fields. The NS equations contain such a fundamental assumption that all small physical/artificial disturbances could be neglected. Is this assumption…
We present an extensive pseudospectral study of the randomly forced Navier-Stokes equation (RFNSE) stirred by a stochastic force with zero mean and a variance $\sim k^{4-d-y}$, where $k$ is the wavevector and the dimension $d = 3$. We…
The Navier--Stokes (NS) equations describe fluid dynamics through a high-dimensional, nonlinear system of partial differential equations (PDEs). Despite their fundamental importance, their behavior in turbulent regimes remains incompletely…
A fundamental aspect of turbulence theory is related to the identification of realizable phase-space statistical descriptions able to reproduce in some suitable sense the stochastic fluid equations of a turbulent fluid. In particular, a…
Local analysis of the two dimensional Navier-Stokes equations is used to obtain estimates on the energy and enstrophy fluxes involving Taylor and Kraichnan length scales and the size of the domain. In the framework of zero driving force and…

The appearance of vortex filaments, the power-law dependence of velocity and vorticity correlators and their multiscaling behavior are derived from the Navier-Stokes equation. This is possible due to interpretation of the Navier-Stokes…
