On Epistemological Boundaries of Turbulence Modeling Revealed through Stokes’ Reserved Stance on Reynolds’ RANS Equations

[Objective] This study reveals the epistemological rationale underlying George Gabriel Stokes’ cautious and reserved stance in his review of Osborne Reynolds’ groundbreaking 1895 paper proposing the Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations. While Reynolds’ methodology has become a cornerston...
