SUMMARY:Turbulence: from the basics to slightly beyond
LOCATION:Zoom
DESCRIPTION:In the landscape of physics, turbulence stands in a rather unique place. Th
 e problems it attempts to solve can be traced back to Newton's Principia wi
 th slow progress afterwards even though\n1) the equations to be solved are 
 well-known (Euler eq. for inviscid fluids, Navier-Stokes with viscosity) \n
 2) The range of applications is huge, from moving objects to weather and cl
 imate studies\nOver the last forty years, big progress in the understanding
  of the transition from laminar (not time dependent) to turbulent flows. Dy
 namical system theory yields a fair understanding of transition in small bo
 xes (the "routes to chaos").In systems with many degrees of freedom (like p
 arallel flows or pipe flows) the transition is continuous and follows the d
 irected percolation scenario, which explains observations made in 1888 by O
 sborne Reynolds. \nThere remains to understand the regime of very large Rey
 nolds numbers, very far from the onset of stability. I'll discuss the model
 ing of this regime, namely the way momentum is exchanged by interaction bet
 ween turbulent fluctuations, the so-called closure problem, in a concrete s
 ituation.\n
