Q. What is Andrey Kolmogorov known for?
In classical mechanics, he is best known for the Kolmogorov–Arnold–Moser theorem, first presented in 1954 at the International Congress of Mathematicians. Around this time he also began to develop, and was considered a founder of, algorithmic complexity theory – often referred to as Kolmogorov complexity theory.
Q. What did Andrey Kolmogorov?
Andrey Nikolayevich Kolmogorov, (born April 25 [April 12, Old Style], 1903, Tambov, Russia—died Oct. 20, 1987, Moscow), Russian mathematician whose work influenced many branches of modern mathematics, especially harmonic analysis, probability, set theory, information theory, and number theory.
Q. What is the significance of the Kolmogorov scales?
The smallest scales in turbulent flow are known as the Kolmogorov microscales. These are small enough that molecular diffusion becomes important and viscous dissipation of energy takes place and the turbulent kinetic energy is dissipated into heat.

Q. Who invented turbulent flow?
EARLY DEVELOPMENT OF REYNOLDS’ IDEAS ON TURBULENT FLOW Osborne Reynolds is, without doubt, best known for his papers on fluid flow and turbulence. Besides the two principal papers, several other earlier contributions give insight into the way his ideas were developing.
