On the statistical theory of turbulence
Creators
Abstract
G. I. Taylor (1) gave an important impetus to the statistical theory of turbulence by introducing the concept of "isotropic" turbulence, defined by the feature that the mean squares and mean products of the velocity components and of their derivatives are invariant with respect to rotation and reflection of the coordinate axes.
