The Local Structure of Turbulence in Incompressible Viscous Fluid for Very Large Reynolds Numbers
Abstract
This paper is an English translation of a work (since become classic) of Kolmogorov's first published in 1941. Definitions on the local structure of turbulence are presented, and similarity hypotheses are stated.
