It is shown that the idea that scaling behavior in turbulence is limited by one outer length $L$ and one inner length $\eta$ is untenable. Every n'th order correlation function of velocity differences $\bbox{\cal F}_n(\B.R_1,\B.R_2,\dots)$…
We ask whether the scaling exponents or the Kolmogorov constants depend on the anisotropy of the velocity fluctuations in a turbulent flow with no shear. According to our experiment, the answer is no for the Eulerian second-order transverse…
A shell-model version of Kraichnan's (1994 {\it Phys. Rev. Lett. \bf 72}, 1016) passive scalar problem is introduced which is inspired from the model of Jensen, Paladin and Vulpiani (1992 {\it Phys. Rev. A\bf 45}, 7214). As in the original…

Turbulent hydrodynamics is characterised by universal scaling properties of its structure functions. The basic framework for investigations of these functions has been set by Kolmogorov in 1941. His predictions for the scaling exponents,…
We show that the Sabra shell model of turbulence, which was introduced recently, displays a Hamiltonian structure for given values of the parameters. As a consequence we compute exactly a one-parameter family of anomalous scaling exponents…

The field-theoretic renormalization group (RG) and the operator product expansion are applied to the model of a divergence-free vector quantity, passively advected by the ``synthetic'' turbulent flow with a finite correlation time. The…
We use two related non-stationarity functions as measures of the degree of scale-by-scale non-equilibrium in homogeneous isotropic turbulence. The values of these functions indicate significant non-equilibrium at the upper end of the…
The major difficulty in developing theories for anomalous scaling in hydrodynamic turbulence is the lack of a small parameter. In this Letter we introduce a shell model of turbulence that exhibits anomalous scaling with a tunable small…
Exact budget equations for the second-order structure function tensor $\langle \delta u_i \delta u_j \rangle$ are used to study the two-point statistics of velocity fluctuations in inhomogeneous turbulence. The Anisotropic Generalized…
The problem of the interplay between normal and anomalous scaling in turbulent systems stirred by a random forcing with a power law spectrum is addressed. We consider both linear and nonlinear systems. As for the linear case, we study…
In order to reliably compute the longitudinal structure functions in decaying and forced turbulence, local isotropy is examined with the aid of the isotropic expression of the incompressible conditions for the second and third order…
Self-similar Euler singularities may be useful for understanding some aspects of Navier-Stokes turbulence. Here, a causal explanation for intermittency is given, based on the control of the sudden growth of the gradients by the Euler…
As stated in the present research, the anisotropic non-Kolmogorov turbulence model is more in line with the actual turbulence. However, anisotropic factor is vital for the accuracy of calculations, and measuring it precisely is a…
We expose a hidden scaling symmetry of the Navier-Stokes equations in the limit of vanishing viscosity, which stems from dynamical space-time rescaling around suitably defined Lagrangian scaling centers. At a dynamical level, the hidden…
We consider the steady state statistics of turbulence in general classes of dissipative hydrodynamic equations, where the fluctuations are sustained by a random source concentrated at large scales. It is well known that in some particular…
Kraichnan's model of passive scalar advection is studied as a case model for understanding the anomalous scaling in the anisotropic sectors. We show here that the solutions of the Kraichnan equation for the $n$ order correlations foliate…
