Since the famous work by Kolmogorov on incompressible turbulence, the structure-function theory has been a key foundation of modern turbulence study. Due to the simplicity of Burgers turbulence, structure functions are calculated to arbitrary orders, which provides numerous implications for other compressible turbulent systems. We present the derivation of exact forcing-scale resolving expressions for high-order structure functions of the burgers turbulence. Compared with the previous theories where the structure functions are calculated in the inertial range based on the statistics of shocks, our expressions link high-order structure functions in different orders without extra information on the flow structure and are valid beyond the inertial range, therefore they are easily checked by numerical simulations.

Using exact relations between velocity structure functions (Hill, Hill and Boratav, and Yakhot) and neglecting pressure contributions in a first approximation, we obtain a closed system and derive simple order-dependent rescaling relationships betwee
n longitudinal and transverse structure functions. By means of numerical data with turbulent Reynolds numbers ranging from $Re_lambda=320$ to $Re_lambda=730$, we establish a clear correspondence between their respective scaling range, while confirming that their scaling exponents do differ. This difference does not seem to depend on Reynolds number. Making use of the Mellin transform, we further map longitudinal to (rescaled) transverse probability density functions.
Lagrangian properties obtained from a Particle Tracking Velocimetry experiment in a turbulent flow at intermediate Reynolds number are presented. Accurate sampling of particle trajectories is essential in order to obtain the Lagrangian structure func
tions and to measure intermittency at small temporal scales. The finiteness of the measurement volume can bias the results significantly. We present a robust way to overcome this obstacle. Despite no fully developed inertial range we observe strong intermittency at the scale of dissipation. The multifractal model is only partially able to reproduce the results.
This work is devoted to the decay ofrandom solutions of the unforced Burgers equation in one dimension in the limit of vanishing viscosity. The initial velocity is homogeneous and Gaussian with a spectrum proportional to $k^n$ at small wavenumbers $k
$ and falling off quickly at large wavenumbers. In physical space, at sufficiently large distances, there is an ``outer region, where the velocity correlation function preserves exactly its initial form (a power law) when $n$ is not an even integer. When $1<n<2$ the spectrum, at long times, has three scaling regions : first, a $|k|^n$ region at very small $k$ms1 with a time-independent constant, stemming from this outer region, in which the initial conditions are essentially frozen; second, a $k^2$ region at intermediate wavenumbers, related to a self-similarly evolving ``inner region in physical space and, finally, the usual $k^{-2}$ region, associated to the shocks. The switching from the $|k|^n$ to the $k^2$ region occurs around a wave number $k_s(t) propto t^{-1/[2(2-n)]}$, while the switching from $k^2$ to $k^{-2}$ occurs around $k_L(t)propto t^{-1/2}$ (ignoring logarithmic corrections in both instances). The key element in the derivation of the results is an extension of the Kida (1979) log-corrected $1/t$ law for the energy decay when $n=2$ to the case of arbitrary integer or non-integer $n>1$. A systematic derivation is given in which both the leading term and estimates of higher order corrections can be obtained. High-resolution numerical simulations are presented which support our findings.
This work is devoted to the study of the decay of multiscale deterministic solutions of the unforced Burgers equation in the limit of vanishing viscosity. A deterministic model of turbulence-like evolution is considered. We con- struct the initial
perturbation as a piecewise linear analog of the Weierstrass function. The wavenumbers of this function form a Weierstrass spectrum, which accumulates at the origin in geometric progression.Reverse sawtooth functions with negative initial slope are used in this series as basic functions, while their amplitudes are chosen by the condition that the distribution of energy over exponential intervals of wavenumbers is the same as for the continuous spectrum in Burgers turbulence. Combining these two ideas allows us to obtain an exact analytical solution for the velocity field. We also notice that such multiscale waves may be constructed for multidimensional Burgers equation. This solution has scaling exponent h=-(1+n)/2 and its evolution in time is self-similar with logarithmic periodicity and with the same average law L(t) as for Burgers turbulence. Shocklines form self-similar regular tree-like struc- tures. This model also describes important properties of the Burgers turbulence such as the self-preservation of the evolution of large scale structures in the presence of small scales perturbations.
Exact budget equations for the second-order structure function tensor $langle delta u_i delta u_j rangle$ are used to study the two-point statistics of velocity fluctuations in inhomogeneous turbulence. The Anisotropic Generalized Kolmogorov Equation
s (AGKE) describe the production, transport, redistribution and dissipation of every Reynolds stress component occurring simultaneously among different scales and in space, i.e. along directions of statistical inhomogeneity. The AGKE are effective to study the inter-component and multi-scale processes of turbulence. In contrast to more classic approaches, such as those based on the spectral decomposition of the velocity field, the AGKE provide a natural definition of scales in the inhomogeneous directions, and describe fluxes across such scales too. Compared to the Generalized Kolmogorov Equation, which is recovered as their half trace, the AGKE can describe inter-component energy transfers occurring via the pressure-strain term and contain also budget equations for the off-diagonal components of $langle delta u_i delta u_j rangle$. The non-trivial physical interpretation of the AGKE terms is demonstrated with three examples. First, the near-wall cycle of a turbulent channel flow at $Re_tau=200$ is considered. The off-diagonal component $langle -delta u delta v rangle$, which can not be interpreted in terms of scale energy, is discussed in detail. Wall-normal scales in the outer turbulence cycle are then discussed by applying the AGKE to channel flows at $Re_tau=500$ and $1000$. In a third example, the AGKE are computed for a separating and reattaching flow. The process of spanwise-vortex formation in the reverse boundary layer within the separation bubble is discussed for the first time.
