Abstract

In this paper we show that the role of kinematic relationships in the issue of nonlocality goes far beyond their use in the nonlocal interpretation of the Kolmogorov 4/5 law and applicable also to general stochastic processes, unrelated to the N-S equation.We put special emphasis on this aspect pointing to a large number of such relations for the structure functions expressed via terms all of which have the form of correlations between large- and small-scale quantities, and giving examples of their experimental verification at large Reynolds numbers in field and airborne experiments.
