Turbulence governed by the Navier-Stokes equations shows a tendency to evolve towards a state in which the nonlinearity is diminished. In fully developed turbulence this tendency can be measured by comparing the variance of the nonlinear…

We are concerned with the isentropic compressible Navier-Stokes system in the two-dimensional torus, with rough data and vacuum : the initial velocity is in the Sobolev space H^1 and the initial density is only bounded and nonnegative.…
We present a model describing evolution of the small-scale Navier-Stokes turbulence due to its stochastic distortions by much larger turbulent scales. This study is motivated by numerical findings (laval, 2001) that such interactions of…
