Josiah Willard Gibbs
Origin/Culture/Country: AmericanJosiah Willard Gibbs: was an American theoretical physicist, chemist, and mathematician. One of the greatest American scientists of all time, he devised much of the theoretical foundation for chemical thermodynamics as well as physical chemistry. As a mathematician, he invented vector analysis (independently of Oliver Heaviside). It is in good part thanks to Gibbs that much of physical and chemical theory has since been exposited using vector analysis. Yale University awarded Gibbs the first American Ph.D. in engineering in 1863, and he spent his entire career at Yale.[1] His thesis was entitled: On the Form of the Teeth of Wheels in Spur Gearing.
