Abstract
The probability density function of lateral velocity increment across an arbitrary distance ranging from the Kolmogorov scale to the integra l scale in isotropoic turbulence is predicted in a semi-empirical way. The method is based on the previous theory of the first author for tr eating statistics of longitudinal velocity increment and new data of d irect numerical simulation of decaying isotropic turbulence on a 512(3 ) grid.
