On the nature of turbulence [PDF]
A mechanism for the generation of turbulence and related phenomena in dissipative systems is proposed.

There is no universal definition of turbulence agreed to by the entire scientific community. The reasons for this aremultiple. Firstly, there is no comprehensive theory of turbulence. It is recognized as one of the outstanding problems in physics despite

Never is the difference between thermal equilibrium and turbulence so dramatic, as when a quadratic invariant makes the equilibrium statistics exactly Gaussian with independently fluctuating modes. That happens in two very different yet deeply connected classes of systems: incompressible hydrodynamics and resonantly interacting waves.

Stirring turbulence with turbulence [PDF]
We stir wind-tunnel turbulence with an active grid that consists of rods with attached vanes. The time-varying angle of these rods is controlled by random numbers. We study the response of turbulence on the statistical properties of these random numbers.

Turbulent Firms, Turbulent Wages? [PDF]
Has greater turbulence among firms fueled rising wage instability in the United States? Earlier research by Gottschalk and Moffitt shows that rising earnings instability was responsible for one-third to one-half of the rise in wage inequality during the 1980s. These growing transitory fluctuations remain largely unexplained. To help fill this gap, this

Is 2D turbulence a conformal turbulence? [PDF]
A critical analysis of the conformal approach to the theory of 2d turbulence is delivered. It is shown, in particular, that conformal minimal models cannot give a general turbulent solution, which should provide for constant fluxes of all vorticity integrals of motion.

Active fluids exhibit spontaneous flows with complex spatiotemporal structure, which have been observed in bacterial suspensions, sperm cells, cytoskeletal suspensions, self-propelled colloids, and cell tissues.

In recent years, observations of the atmospheric surface layer have greatly promoted research on high-Reynolds-number wall-bounded turbulence, especially observations of wind-blown sand flows/sandstorms, which are typical sand-laden two-phase flows ...
