Introduction to Statistical Theory of Fluid Turbulence
by Mahendra K. Verma
Publisher: arXiv 2005
Number of pages: 40
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.

The Secret of Flightby Johan Hoffman, Johan Jansson, Claes Johnson
A theory of subsonic flight based on a combination of analysis and computation. We uncover a mechanism for the generation of substantial lift at the expense of small drag of a wing, which is fundamentally different from the classical theories.

Some Open Questions in Hydrodynamicsby Mateusz Dyndal, Laurent Schoeffel - arXiv
There are many deep open questions that come with the theory of fluid mechanics. We discuss some of them that we classify in two categories, the long term behavior of solutions of equations of hydrodynamics and the definition of initial conditions.
