George Keith Batchelor FRS [1] (8 March 1920 – 30 March 2000) was an Australian applied mathematician and fluid dynamicist. He was for many years a Professor of Applied Mathematics in the University of Cambridge , and was founding head of the Department of Applied Mathematics and Theoretical Physics (DAMTP).
In fluid and molecular dynamics, the Batchelor scale, determined by George Batchelor (1959), [1] describes the size of a droplet of fluid that will diffuse in the same time it takes the energy in an eddy of size η to dissipate. The Batchelor scale can be determined by: [2]
The following outline is provided as an overview of and topical guide to fluid dynamics: . In physics, physical chemistry and engineering, fluid dynamics is a subdiscipline of fluid mechanics that describes the flow of fluids – liquids and gases.
In fluid dynamics, Prandtl–Batchelor theorem states that if in a two-dimensional laminar flow at high Reynolds number closed streamlines occur, then the vorticity in the closed streamline region must be a constant. A similar statement holds true for axisymmetric flows. The theorem is named after Ludwig Prandtl and George Batchelor.

From January 2008 to February 2012, if you bought shares in companies when Robert A. Miller joined the board, and sold them when he left, you would have a -11.7 percent return on your investment, compared to a -7.1 percent return from the S&P 500.
In fluid dynamics the Milne-Thomson circle theorem or the circle theorem is a statement giving a new stream function for a fluid flow when a cylinder is placed into that flow. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] It was named after the English mathematician L. M. Milne-Thomson .
