Abstract

In the preceding chapter, we introduced a statistical formulation of hydrodynamic turbulence. An inherent difficulty in both the moment formulation in Sect. 3.​3 and the formulation via kinetic equations in Sect. 3.​4 is the hierarchical character of the corresponding system of equations. The latter can be considered as a signature of the spatio-temporal complexity that is inherent in turbulent systems. Despite the fact that moment and kinetic approach differ in the way the hierarchy of equations arises, they share the property that equations of statistical quantities of order n involve unclosed terms of order \(n+1\). Hence, in both approaches, we are faced with the amply defined closure problem of turbulence.
