Book Description:

This book offers a new approach to the modelling and analysis of turbulent flows dominated by coherent structures. Using techniques from probability theory and nonlinear dynamics, the authors show how the governing nonlinear equations of fluid mechanics may be reduced to simpler models which provide understanding of the basic mechanisms of turbulence generation.
