Big whorls carry little whorls

Abstract

The aim of the research was to explore the space-time structure of homogeneous turbulence by computing and then interpreting the two-point spectra and correlations of the velocity and pressure fields. Many of these statistics are of considerable practical importance. In particular, it is of interest to compare the different time and length integral scales and microscales for Eulerian and Lagrangian qualities, and to compare the space and time spectra
