Intermittency phenomena are known to be among the main reasons why Kolmogorov's theory of fully developed Turbulence is not in accordance with several experimental results. This is why some \emph{fractal} statistical models have been…
We consider freely decaying two-dimensional isotropic turbulence. It is usually assumed that, in such turbulence, the energy spectrum at small wave number, takes the form, where is the two-dimensional version of Loitsyansky's integral. In…
Empirical observations show that turbulence exhibits a broad range of scaling exponents, characterizing how the velocity gradients diverge in the inviscid limit. These exponents are thought to be linked to singular solutions of the Euler…
Scaling and structural evolutions are contemplated in a new perspective for turbulent channel flows. The total integrated turbulence kinetic energy remains constant when normalized by the friction velocity squared, while the total…

Active fluids exhibit complex turbulent-like flows at low Reynolds number. Recent work predicted that 2d active nematic turbulence follows universal scaling laws. However, experimentally testing these predictions is conditioned by the…
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…
