The central problem of fully developed turbulence is the energy cascading process. It has revisited all attempts at a full physical understanding or mathematical formulation. The main reason for this failure are related to the large…

The universality of small scales, a cornerstone of turbulence, has been nominally confirmed for low-order mean-field statistics, such as the energy spectrum. However, small scales exhibit strong intermittency, exemplified by formation of…

A statistically stationary turbulence with a mean shear gradient is realized in a flow driven by suitable body forces. The flow domain is periodic in downstream and spanwise directions and bounded by stress free surfaces in the normal…

Inertialess anisotropic particles in a Rayleigh-B\'enard turbulent flow show maximal tumbling rates for weakly oblate shapes, in contrast with the universal behaviour observed in developed turbulence where the mean tumbling rate…

Multiscale correlation functions in high Reynolds number experimental turbulence, numerical simulations and synthetic signals are investigated. Fusion Rules predictions as they arise from multiplicative, almost uncorrelated, random…

The large structures in the outer layer of turbulent wall flows are of great physical importance, because they contain a substantial fraction of the streamwise kinetic energy and of the Reynolds stresses. Nevertheless, the organization of…

The first example of a turbulent system where the failure of the hypothesis of small-scale isotropy restoration is detectable both in the `flattening' of the inertial-range scaling exponent hierarchy, and in the behavior of odd-order…

We discuss a few recent developments that are important for understanding of MHD turbulence. First, MHD turbulence is not so messy as it is usually believed. In fact, the notion of strong non-linear coupling of compressible and…

Motivated by recent experimental and numerical results, a simple unifying picture of intermittency in turbulent shear flows is suggested. Integral Structure Functions (ISF), taking into account explicitly the shear intensity, are introduced…

Scaling of turbulent wall-bounded flows is revealed in the gradient structures, for each of the Reynolds stress components. Within the dissipation structure, an asymmetrical order exists, that we can deploy to unify the scaling and…

In this paper, we experimentally study the influence of large-scale Taylor rolls on the small-scale statistics and the flow organization in fully turbulent Taylor-Couette flow {for Reynolds numbers up to $\text{Re}_S=3\times 10^5$}. The…

The problem of anomalous scaling in magnetohydrodynamics turbulence is considered within the framework of the kinematic approximation, in the presence of a large-scale background magnetic field. The velocity field is Gaussian,…

For more than five decades, a notable spread in the low frequencies of velocity and temperature spectra, scaled using inertial subrange properties and Monin-Obukhov similarity theory, has been observed in unstable stratification. A large…

To study the Reynolds stresses which describe turbulent momentum transport from turbulence affected by large-scale shear and rotation. Three-dimensional numerical simulations are used to study turbulent transport under the influences of…

We study the homogeneous isotropic turbulence of a shear-thinning fluid modeled by the Carreau model and show how the variable viscosity affects the multiscale behaviour of the turbulent flow. We show that Kolmogorov theory can be extended…

A new experimental investigation of decaying turbulence generated by a low-blockage space-filling fractal square grid is presented. We find agreement with previous works by Seoud & Vassilicos (2007) and Mazellier & Vassilicos (2010) but…

Numerical simulations are used to determine the influence of the non-local and local interactions on the intermittency corrections in the scaling properties of 3D turbulence. We show that neglect of local interactions leads to an enhanced…

Turbulent shear flows, such as those occurring in the wall region of turbulent boundary layers, manifest a substantial increase of intermittency with respect to isotropic conditions. This suggests a close link between anisotropy and…

A hydrodynamic model of active, low Reynolds number suspensions, shows the emergence of an asymptotic state with a universal spectral scaling and non-Gaussian (intermittent) fluctuations in the velocity field. Such states arise when these…

A general model for stationary, time-wise turbulent velocity is presented and discussed. This approach, inspired by modeling ideas of Barndorff-Nielsen and Schimgel, is coherent with the K41 hypothesis of local isotropy, and it allows us to…
