 Longitudinal velocity structure function

The order-$p$ longitudinal velocity structure function is $S_p(r)=⟨[u_L(\mathbf{x}+r\mathbf{n})-u_L(\mathbf{x}){]}^p⟩$; absolute increments are used for noninteger orders. At second order $S_2=2u^2[1-f(r)]$. It suppresses a smooth common velocity but does not exactly remove all contributions from motions larger than the separation.
