Abstract

The time irreversibility of turbulent flows is an indicator for their non-equilibrium character, and a better understanding of this connection is important to obtain a complete picture of turbulence. In this chapter, the results obtained in this thesis are thoroughly discussed and put in relation to previous publications.
