Abstract

Edward Fraenkel’s professional career began as an experimentalist at the Royal Aircraft Establishment, Farnborough, but his preoccupation with the theoretical and mathematical aspects of aerodynamics led him into academia, working initially in aerodynamics and classical applied mathematics, but later in the modern theory of nonlinear partial differential equations and its applications to fluid mechanics. He made outstanding contributions to the mathematical theories of viscous flow separation, steady vortex rings and surface waves on water.
