This textbook is based on the lectures on turbulence given in the Masters programme at Université Pierre et Marie Curie and Ecole Polytechnique. The book covers the classic topics on turbulence that includes: introduction to fundamentals of statistical and spectral analysis, dimensional analysis, Kolmogorov theory and energy cascade, the hierarchy of turbulent flows ranging from isotropic turbulence to non-homogeneous shear flows, and extension to compressible turbulence illuminated using Kovasznay model decomposition.A substantial section of this volume is devoted to exercises and...
