An investigation of renormalization group methods in the study of fluid turbulence, and their development for large eddy simulations
Turbulence is a problem of chaotic motion involving many length and time scales. When the Navier-Stokes equation is Fourier transformed, it comes to resemble a many-body problem in statistical physics, and as such is amenable to treatment by the Renormalization Group (RG) to reduce the number of deg...
