Chaos theory is giving scientists fresh insights into all sorts of unruly phenomena-from dripping faucets to swinging pendulums, from the vagaries of the weather to the movements of the planets, from heart rhythms to gold futures. In this collection of front-line reports, edited for the general reader, internationally recognized experts such as Ian Stewart, Robert M. May, and Benoit Mandelbrot draw on the latest research to trace the roots of chaos in modern science and mathematics.

Reports recent developments in the direct numerical simulation and large-eddy simulation of turbulence from Europe and Japan. The 40 papers cover jets, sub-grid models and homogeneous turbulence, separated flows and transition, thermal and compressible flows, wall flows and channel flows, complex flows, reacting flows, combustion, and flow past a square cylinder as a test case for large-eddy simulation 2. Among the specific topics are amplified frequencies in the proximal region of a circular jet, the self-consistency of the Smagorinsky constant and the value of the Rotta parameter at high Reynolds numbers, the large-eddy simulation of separated boundary layer transition, pressure and dilatation effects in high-speed turbulence, the mechanism of attenuation of turbulence by spanwise wall oscillation, non-unique solutions in turbulent curved pipe flow, extending the dynamic modelling procedure to turbulent reacting flows, and the large-eddy simulation of flow past a square cylinder using embedded meshes.
