Watch this space for important announcements, course information, and supplemental materials.
We shall be discussing in detail the paper of M. Germano, "Turbulence: The Filtering Approach",
J. Fluid. Mech. 238 : 325-336 (1992), which is available from the journal here.
For your convenience a scanned copy of the 1983 work of G. Parisi and U. Frisch,
"On the singularity spectrum of fully developed turbulence" is available here.
For your convenience a PDF of the paper by D. Rempfer, "On Boundary Conditions
for Incompressible Navier-Stokes Problems" (2006) is available here and the paper
by R. Temam, "Suitable Initial Conditions" (2006) is available here
