Turbulence in recent years has become unprecedentedly wicked. Uncertainty has become a dense fog for business leaders, difficult to tackle. This book uses scenario and other methods like systems thinking to look ahead and time travel to the future. Written by an extremely experienced consultant who has in parallel been a strategy academic at leading business schools for over 30 years, it is a practical toolkit grounded in theory. There are many practical experiences to illustrate "How to do it" to complement theory. There are many exercises for the interested reader to try out and many fascinating case studies to take the reader beyond "what happened and why?" to "how the process was managed and tips for applying it for yourself." This is a must-read for business leaders who are finding uncertainties a difficult problem to deal with. For MBA students, it will give them a different dimension for thinking about their course work and projects andprovide a real edge over those trapped within a single view of the future,not just a journey but a new way of thinking.

This book provides state-of-the-art results and theories in homogeneous turbulence, including anisotropy and compressibility effects with extension to quantum turbulence, magneto-hydodynamic turbulence and turbulence in non-newtonian fluids. Each chapter is devoted to a given type of interaction (strain, rotation, shear, etc.), and presents and compares experimental data, numerical results, analysis of the Reynolds stress budget equations and advanced multipoint spectral theories. The role of both linear and non-linear mechanisms is emphasized. The link between the statistical properties and the dynamics of coherent structures is also addressed. Despite its restriction to homogeneous turbulence, the book is of interest to all people working in turbulence, since the basic physical mechanisms which are present in all turbulent flows are explained. The reader will find a unified presentation of the results and a clear presentation of existing controversies. Special attention is given to bridge the results obtained in different research communities. Mathematical tools and advanced physical models are detailed in dedicated chapters.
