A study on small scale intermittency using direct numerical simulation of turbulence

Theory of turbulence at small scales plays a fundamental role in modeling turbulence and in retrieving information from physical measurements of turbulent flows. A systematic methodology based on direct numerical simulations of turbulent flows is developed to investigate universality of small scale...
