Abstract

We shall discuss how the large structures of turbulent flows have to be modellized especially from the beginning of their onset, without any hypothesis based on fully developed turbulence. A completely mathematical derived model is presented, given by homogenization theory. That model would be able to evaluate the size and behaviour of large structures in presence of statistical equilibrium of small structures.
