However, John Lamb died when Horace was young and after his mother remarried, Horace went to live with Mrs Holland who was his mother's sister. She was kindly lady but nevertheless brought Horace up in a severe Puritan manner. Horace was educated at the Grammar School in Stockport. In 1866, when Horace was only 17, he won a scholarship to read classics at Queen's College, Cambridge but declined the scholarship to spend a year studying at Owens College, Manchester. It was at Owens College that Lamb's interests turned firmly towards mathematics so that, when he entered Trinity College, Cambridge, the following year it was to study mathematics. Lamb was taught by Stokes and Maxwell at Cambridge and graduated as Second Wrangler in 1872 (meaning that he was second in the ranked list of those students awarded a First Class degree). The same year he was awarded a Smith's Prize and he was elected a Fellow and Lecturer at Trinity College.

Horace Lamb A traveller who refuses to pass over a bridge until he has personally tested the soundness of every part of it is not likely to go far; something must be risked, even in mathematics.

In 1875 he was appointed to the chair of mathematics at Adelaide, Australia where he remained for 10 years. Adelaide was extremely fortunate in their choice of Lamb as their first professor of mathematics and he rapidly built the reputation of the mathematics department there. His own reputation as a teacher at Adelaide was very high and he was described as a wonderful teacher who gave very clear, very lucid lectures. Lamb left Australia in 1885, accepting a chair at Victoria University in England (now the University of Manchester). In [4] his influence on the mathematics department at Manchester is described:-

Branch of Science Physicists Nationality English Lamb, Horace (1849-1934) British fluid dynamicist who published a classic text entitled Hydrodynamics. At a meeting of the British Association in London in 1932, he is reputed to have said, "I am an old man now, and when I die and go to Heaven there are two matters on which I hope for enlightenment. One is quantum electrodynamics and the other is the turbulent motion of fluids. And about the former I am really rather optimistic" (Tabor 1989, p. 187). A very similar quote, however, is also attributed to Heisenberg Additional biographies: MacTutor (St. Andrews) References Lamb, H. The Dynamical Theory of Sound. London: E. Arnold, 1910. Lamb, H.

Lamb, Horace English applied mathematician. His chief work is Treatise on the Motion of Fluids 1879, revised and updated as Hydrodynamics 1895-1932, but he also wrote on elasticity, sound, and mechanics. Lamb was born in Stockport, Cheshire, and studied at Cambridge. He went to Australia 1875 to take up the chair of mathematics at the University of Adelaide. In 1885 he returned to Manchester as professor at Owens College. Lamb was particularly adept at applying the solution of a problem in one field to problems in another. A paper of 1882, which analysed the modes of oscillation of an elastic sphere, achieved its true recognition in 1960, when free Earth oscillations during an earthquake behaved in the way he had described. A paper of 1904 gave an analytical account of propagation over the surface of an elastic solid of waves generated by given initial disturbances, and the analysis he provided is now regarded as one of the seminal contributions to theoretical seismology.
