Other property is this: A normal sailing boat has a centerboard here and a rudder at the back, and these two things are what creates most resistance and turbulence behind the boat, but because this doesn't have either a centerboard or a rudder, we hope that if we keep working on this hull design we can improve and have less resistance.
In that environment, instantly, all the possibilities which turbulence brings are available, and it's not the same as laminar.
Well, we could just call it turbulence, or we could try and learn.

From the curves measured for pixel separations, they concluded that paintings from Van Gogh's period of psychotic agitation behave remarkably similar to fluid turbulence.
While it's too easy to say Van Gogh's turbulent genius enabled him to depict turbulence, it's also far too difficult to accurately express the rousing beauty of the fact that in a period of intense suffering, Van Gogh was somehow able to perceive and represent one of the most supremely difficult concepts nature has ever brought before mankind, and to unite his unique mind's eye with the deepest mysteries of movement, fluid and light.

Rather, this means that turbulence is very sensitive to disruptions.
Another important characteristic of turbulence is the different scales of motion that these flows display.

Less viscous substances like water or air are more prone to inertia, which creates instabilities that develop into turbulence.
The higher the Reynolds number, the more likely it is that turbulence will occur.
