Quanta Magazine Season 2019, Episode 3: What Is Turbulence?

0 0 • 0.0/10

Physicists use the Navier-Stokes equations to describe fluid flows, taking into account viscosity, velocity, pressure and density. But because of turbulence in fluids, proving that the equations always make sense is one of the hardest problems in physics and mathematics.
