Lecture
Lecturer: Doc. Ing. Václav Uruba, CSc.
Date: February 21, 2011 (Monday), 14:00-15:00
Location: UK MFF, seminary room KFNT, no. C 126, 2nd floor building C (Kryopavilon), V Holešovičkách 2, Praha 8

Turbulence will be introduced as the typical state of real flowing viscous fluids (historical overview). Attributes of turbulence will be presented (diffusivity, deterministic chaos, fractal structure…). A mathematical model will be introduced and its basic properties will be shown including the Kolmogorov theory. Then a few phenomenological aspects will demonstrate the typical features of the phenomenon (stability, complexity…).
