A new phenomenological model of turbulent fluctuations is constructed by considering the Lagrangian dynamics of 4 points (the tetrad). The closure of the equations of motion is achieved by postulating an anisotropic, i.e. tetrad shape…

In Lagrangian turbulence one is faced with the puzzle that 2D Navier-Stokes flows are nearly as intermittent as in three dimensions although no intermittency is present in the inverse cascade in 2D Eulerian turbulence. In addition, an…
