A novel investigation of the nature of intermittency in incompressible, homogeneous and isotropic turbulence is performed by a numerical study of the Navier-Stokes equations constrained on a fractal Fourier set. The robustness of the energy…

The 2d and 3d like Gletzer, Okhitani and Yamada (GOY) shell models are examined. The 2d like model shows a transition from statistical quasi-equilibrium to cascade of enstrophy as a function of the spectral ratio of energy to enstrophy. The…
