John R. Womersley is a prominent figure in the field of applied mathematics and mathematical physics. He is best known for his work in areas such as fluid dynamics and mathematical methods in physics. One of his notable contributions is the Womersley number, a dimensionless number in biofluid mechanics that characterizes the oscillatory flow of fluids in cylindrical tubes (such as blood flow in arteries).
