Oliver Heaviside (/ ˈ h ɛ v i s aɪ d /, HEH-vee-syde; 18 May 1850 – 3 February 1925) was an English mathematician and physicist who invented a new technique for solving differential equations (equivalent to the Laplace transform), independently developed vector calculus, and rewrote Maxwell's equations in the form commonly used today. He ...

Oliver Heaviside proved important results in electromagnetism and vector calculus. He reduced Maxwell's 20 equations in 20 variables to 4 equations in 2 variables. Oliver Heaviside's parents were Rachel Elizabeth West and Thomas Heaviside. Thomas …

Oliver Heaviside was a physicist who predicted the existence of the ionosphere, an electrically conductive layer in the upper atmosphere that reflects radio waves. In 1870 he became a telegrapher, but increasing deafness forced him to retire in 1874.

2012年11月1日 · Oliver Heaviside (1850–1925) was a self-educated English mathematical physicist who spent most of his life on the far fringes of the scientific community. Yet he did more than anyone else to shape how James Clerk Maxwell’s electromagnetic theory was understood and applied in the 50 years after Maxwell’s death.

2018年10月29日 · One hundred and twenty-five years ago, Oliver Heaviside FRS published the first of his seminal masterpiece series on electromagnetic theory.

2023年4月5日 · Oliver Heaviside (1850-1925) was a telegraphist, self-taught mathematician and reclusive figure.

2023年1月21日 · At a time when it was not unusual for engineers to be self-taught and share their work via letter correspondence, Oliver Heaviside (1850–1925), a self-made mathematician, physicist, and electrical engineer, continues to inspire …

2015年12月4日 · Oliver Heaviside (18 May 1850 – 3 February 1925) was a self taught physicist, mathematician, and electrical engineer. Despite being fairly unknown, Heaviside had more academic contributions than almost any other person in history.

Biographical information on Oliver Heaviside and his predictions concerning the Ionosphere, the existence of sub-atomic particles and the idea that the mass of an electric charge increases with its velocity.

Oliver Heaviside was born May 13, 1850, in London, England. He was a physicist and mathematician whose theoretical work played a large part in the understanding of radio transmission and long-distance telephony.
