Authors:
- This book presents the first mathematical theory of fully-developed turbulence
- Shows the stochastic Navier-Stokes Equation is the appropriate model and the statistical theory of this equation is developed
- Proves the Kolmogorov-Obukhov statistical theory of turbulence with the correct intermittency corrections
- Probability distribution functions of velocity differences of turbulent fluids are found and compared with simulations and experiments?
