Local energy transfer theory in forced and decaying isotropic turbulence

In mathematical analyses of the turbulence phenomenon, averaging the governing equation of fluid flow leads to an impasse at which the number of equations is outweighed by the number of unknowns. This difficulty is often described as the 'closure problem'. A 'closure hypothesis'...
