This volume provides a snapshot of the current and future trends in
turbulence research across a range of disciplines. It provides an
overview of the key challenges that face scientific and engineering
communities in the context of huge databases of turbulence
information currently being generated, yet poorly mined. These
challenges include coherent structures and their control, wall
turbulence and control, multi-scale turbulence, the impact of
turbulence on energy generation and turbulence data manipulation
strategies. The motivation for this volume is to assist the reader
to make physical sense of these data deluges so as to inform both
the research community as well as to advance practical outcomes
from what is learned. Outcomes presented in this collection provide
industry with information that impacts their activities, such as
minimizing impact of wind farms, opportunities for understanding
large scale wind events and large eddy simulation of the
hydrodynamics of bays and lakes thereby increasing energy
efficiencies, and minimizing emissions and noise from jet engines.
Elucidates established, contemporary, and novel aspects of fluid
turbulence - a ubiquitous yet poorly understood phenomena; Explores
computer simulation of turbulence in the context of the emerging,
unprecedented profusion of experimental data,which will need to be
stewarded and archived; Examines a compendium of problems and
issues that investigators can use to help formulate new promising
research ideas; Makes the case for why funding agencies and
scientists around the world need to lead a global effort to
establish and steward large stores of turbulence data, rather than
leaving them to individual researchers.

This fourth issue on "progress in turbulence" is based on the
fourth ITI conference (ITI interdisciplinary turbulence
initiative), which took place in Bertinoro, North Italy. Leading
researchers from the engineering and physical sciences presented
latest results in turbulence research. Basic as well as applied
research is driven by the rather notorious difficult and
essentially unsolved problem of turbulence. In this collection of
contributions clear progress can be seen in different aspects,
ranging from new quality of numerical simulations to new concepts
of experimental investigations and new theoretical developments.
The importance of turbulence is shown for a wide range of
applications including: combustion, energy, flow control, urban
flows, are few examples found in this volume. A motivation was to
bring fundamentals of turbulence in connection with renewable
energy. This lead us to add a special topic relevant to the impact
of turbulence on the wind energy conversion. The structure of the
present book is as such that contributions have been bundled
according to covering topics i.e. I Basic Turbulence Aspects, II
Particle Laden Flows, III Modeling and Simulations, IV,
Experimental Methods, V Special Flows, VI Atmospheric Boundary
Layer, VII Boundary Layer, VIII Wind Energy and IX Convection. This
book is dedicated to the memory of Prof. Tim Nickels. Shortly after
giving an invited lecture at the 4th ITI conference, the turbulence
community lost a world-class scientist, a friend and devoted family
man.
