This monograph is founded on the belief that the co-operation of theory and modelling with direct numerical simulation and experimental observations is indispensable for forming a firm understanding of the evolution of nature, in this case, the theory and modelling of plasma and fluid turbulence. In this detailed book, modelling methodologies are explained in depth with regard to turbulence phenomena and turbulent transport in both fluids and plasmas, with special attention being paid to structural formation and transitions.The theme of the work is to show the underling ideas describing the turbulence, turbulent transport and the structural transitions in plasmas and fluids. By comparing and contrasting turbulence in fluids and plasmas, the authors demonstrate the underlying basic physical principles common to fluids and plasmas, whilst particular differences are highlighted, e.g. through the role of long range interaction through electromagnetic fields. The application of these ideas to neutral fluids is also discussed.In Part I, a general introduction is made to turbulence and structural formation in fluids and plasmas. Methodologies for fluid turbulence are explained in Part II. Part III is devoted to subjects in magnetohydrodynamics, in particular, dynamo problems. Plasma turbulence and transport are discussed in Part IV.
