A transformation naemd after this scientist takes harmonic function in Euclidean space to other harmonic functions and is used to transform sphere interiors to exteriors in potential theory.
A transformation naemd after this scientist takes harmonic function in Euclidean space to other harmonic functions and is used to transform sphere interiors to exteriors in potential theory. An instability in which shear overcomes the effects of stratification is named for this man and Helmholtz, and a viscoelastic material model is named for this man and Voigt. The statement that the line integral of a velocity field in a fluid around a contour is constant in time for isentropic flow with no external forces is known as his namesake circulation theorem. An effect in which gas flowing through a constricted passage is cooled at constant enthalpy is named for James Joule and this man, who claimed that heat taken from a reservoir cannot by itself be used to do work, thus providing a formulation of the second law of thermodynamics. For ten points, identify this British scientist who helped lay the transatlantic cable and names an absolute temperature scale.
