A modern introduction to methods of statistical mechanics in
turbulence, this volume explains the methodology of non-equilibrium
statistical mechanics and how it plays an increasingly important
role in modern turbulence research. The range of relevant tools and
methods is so wide and developing so fast, that until now there has
not been a single book covering the subject. This much-needed book
is comprised of three harmonized lecture courses by world class
experts in statistical physics and turbulence: John Cardy
introduces Field Theory and Non-Equilibrium Statistical Mechanics;
Gregory Falkovich discusses Turbulence Theory as part of
Statistical Physics; and Krzysztof Gawedzki examines Soluble Models
of Turbulent Transport. To encourage readers to deepen their
understanding of the theoretical material, each chapter contains
exercises with solutions. Essential reading for students and
researchers in the field of theoretical turbulence, this volume
will also interest any scientist or engineer who applies knowledge
of turbulence and non-equilibrium physics to their work.
