Introduction to Statistical Theory of Fluid Turbulence
by Mahendra K. Verma
Publisher: arXiv 2020
Number of pages: 44
Description:
Fluid and plasma flows exhibit complex random behaviour at high Reynolds numbers; this phenomena is called turbulence. This text is a brief introduction to the statistical theory of fluid turbulence, with emphasis on field-theoretic treatment of renormalized viscosity and energy fluxes.

Using Multiscale Norms to Quantify Mixing and Transportby Jean-Luc Thiffeault - arXiv
Mixing is relevant to many areas of science and engineering, including the pharmaceutical and food industries, oceanography, atmospheric sciences, etc. In all these situations one goal is to improve the degree of homogenisation of a substance.

The Secret of Sailingby Johan Hoffman, Johan Jansson, Claes Johnson
This book presents a mathematical theory of sailing based on a combination of analysis and computation. This new theory is fundamentally different from that envisioned in the classical theories for lift in inviscid flow and for drag in viscous flow.
