Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

William C. Reynolds (1933-2004) was a renowned and exceptionally creative scientist who specialized in turbulent flow and computational fluid dynamics. However, his competence spanned many areas of fluid mechanics, and of mechanical engineering in general. He completed his bachelor's (1954), master's (1955) and doctoral (1957) degrees at Stanford University, California. Reynolds chaired the Department of Mechanical Engineering from 1972 to 1982 and from 1989 to 1992. A pioneer in large eddy simulation for fluid modelling, he was elected to the National Academy of Engineering in 1979. He won the Fluid Engineering Award of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers in 1989 and the Otto Laporte Award by the American Physical Society in 1992. He was universally recognized as a gifted and original educator. He wrote several books, some on thermodynamics.
