The MacTutor History of Mathematics archive : George Gabriel Stokes Born: 13 Aug 1819 in Skreen, County Sligo, Ireland Died: 1 Feb 1903 in Cambridge, Cambridgeshire, England George Stokes established the science of hydrodynamics with his law of viscosity (1851), describing the velocity of a small sphere through a viscous fluid. Stokes published papers on the motion of incompressible fluids in 1842-43 and on the friction of fluids in motion and the equilibrium and motion of elastic solids in 1845. In 1849 Stokes was appointed Lucasian Professor of Mathematics at Cambridge. In 1851 Stokes was elected to the Royal Society and was secretary of the Society from 1854 to 1884 when he was elected president. He investigated the wave theory of light, named and explained the phenomenon of fluorescence in 1852, and in 1854 theorised an explanation of the Fraunhofer lines in the solar spectrum. He suggested these were caused by atoms in the outer layers of the Sun absorbing certain wavelengths. However when Kirchhoff later published this explanation Stokes disclaimed any prior discovery. Stokes developed mathematical techniques for application to physical problems, founded the science of geodesy, and greatly advanced the study of mathematical physics in England. His mathematical and physical papers were published in 5 volumes, the first 3 of which Stokes edited himself in 1880, 1883 and 1891. The last 2 were edited by Sir Joseph Larmor in 1887 and 1891.

Stokes's Law George Gabriel Stokes was an Irish-born mathematician who spent much of his life working with fluid properties. He is most famous for his work describing the motion of a sphere through viscous fluids. This lead to the the development of Stokes's Law. This equation shows the force needed to move a small sphere through a continuous, quiescent fluid at a certain velocity. It is based primarily on the radius of the sphere and the viscosity of the fluid. The equation he developed is F=6(pi)RnVc, where R is the radius of the sphere, n is the viscosity, and Vc is the velocity through a continuous fluid. This equation can be manipulated to calculate the viscosity of the fluid. An explanation is given in the partial lab write-up linked below. Stokes's work was further refined later to account for "wall (or edge) effects" and "end effects" by Gibson and Jacobs in 1920. These phenomena result in a slower observed velocity because the medium is not continuous. The wall effect correction accounts for the compression of the liquid against the sides of the container holding the fluid as the sphere moves through. This is based on a ratio between the sphere radius and the inner radius of the cylinder.
