Oliver Heaviside: Works & Technology

Oliver Heaviside (/ˈhɛvisaɪd/ HEV-ee-syde; 18 May 1850 – 3 February 1925) was a British mathematician and physicist who invented a new technique for solving differential equations (equivalent to the Laplace transform), independently developed vector calculus, and rewrote Maxwell's equations in the form commonly used today. He significantly shaped the way…
