This volume collects the edited and reviewed contributions
presented in the 5th iTi Conference in Bertinoro covering
fundamental aspects in turbulent flows. In the spirit of the iTi
initiative, the volume is produced after the conference so that the
authors had the possibility to incorporate comments and discussions
raised during the meeting.
Turbulence presents a large number of aspects and problems,
which are still unsolved and which challenge research communities
in engineering and physical sciences both in basic and applied
research. The book presents recent advances in theory related to
new statistical approaches, effect of non-linearities and presence
of symmetries. This edition presents new contributions related to
the physics and control of laminar-turbulent transition in
wall-bounded flows, which may have a significant impact on drag
reduction applications. Turbulent boundary layers, at increasing
Reynolds number, are the main subject of both computational and
experimental long research programs aimed at improving our
knowledge on scaling, energy distribution at different scales,
structure eduction, roughness effects to name only a few. Like
previous editions several numerical and experimental analysis of
complex flows, mostly related to applications, are presented.
The structure of the present book is as such that contributions
have been bundled according to covering topics i.e. I Theory, II
Stability, III Wall bounded flows, IV, Complex flows, V Acoustic,
VI Numerical methods.
The volume is dedicated to the memory of Prof. Rudolf Friedrich
who prematurely died in Munster/Germany on the 16th of August 2012.
In his honor the conference has started with a special session
dedicated to his work.
