Turbulent Shear Flows 3 Selected Papers from the Third International Symposium on Turbulent Shear Flows, The University of California, Davis, September 9–11, 1981

In spite of intensive efforts over many decades, the problem of turbulence remains as challenging as ever and the number of papers, books and conferences on this topic con­ tinues to grow. As experimental techniques and computing power have developed, the breadth of investigations into the structure...
