Of course, the physics and the length and time scales are vastly different in all cases, but it is also well known that in all of them, on some relevant length scales, the material flows that govern the dynamical and/or secular evolution of the systems are chaotic and often unpredictable: they are said to be turbulent. The interdisciplinary aspects of turbulence are brought together in this volume containing chapters written by experts from very different fields, including geophysics, astrophysics, and engineering. It covers several subjects on which considerable progress was made during the last decades, from questions concerning the very nature of turbulence to some practical applications. These subjects include: a basic introduction into turbulence, statistical mechanics and nonlinear dynamics, turbulent convection in stars, atmospheric turbulence in the context of numerical weather predictions, magnetohydrodynamic turbulence, turbulent combustion with application to supernova explosions, and finally the numerical treatment of the multi-scale character of turbulence. 410 0$aLecture notes in physics ;$v756. 606 $aTurbulence 615 0$aTurbulence. 676 $a523.01 676 $a530 676 $a532 676 $a533.62 701 $aHillebrandt$b W$g(Wolfgang),$f1944-$047724 701 $aKupka$b Friedrich$01754235 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910483616503321 996 $aInterdisciplinary aspects of turbulence$94190478 997 $aUNINA
