title: Anomalous scaling for Lagrangian velocity structure functions in fully developed turbulence.
abstract: A hierarchical structure model is developed for anomalous scaling of the Lagrangian velocity structure functions in fully developed turbulence. This model is an extension of the Eulerian hierarchical structure model of She and Leveque [Phys. Rev. Lett. 72, 366 (1994)] to the Lagrangian velocity structure functions, where the straining and sweeping hypotheses are used to build up the relationship between the singular scalings of Lagrangian and Eulerian intermittent structures. The Lagrangian scaling exponents obtained from the straining hypothesis are in good agreement with the experimental results of the Bodenschatz group.
