DESCRIPTION:The phenomenon of hydrodynamic turbulence has puzzled mathemat
 icians\, physicists and engineers since the beginning of the 20th century.
  Mathematicians are fascinated by the solvability of the corresponding Nav
 ier-Stokes system of partial differential equations\, physicists in the st
 atistical behaviour as related to statistical mechanics of turbulence and 
 engineers ask questions like: What are the heat transfer properties of a t
 urbulent flow? What are the forces applied by a fluid to its boundary? \n\
 nIn a turbulent flow\, many physical quantities undergo rapid\, random and
  very chaotic changes\, proving an obstacle in the analysis of the Navier-
 Stokes equations. All this leads to the need of statistical description of
  a turbulent flow\, the concept of statistical solutions of the Navier-Sto
 kes equations and the use of probability theory in the study of the Navier
 -Stokes equations.\n
