Extractions: by John H. Lienhard Click here for audio of Episode 426. Today, we meet a wounded genius. The University of Houston's College of Engineering presents this series about the machines that make our civilization run, and the people whose ingenuity created them. O liver Heaviside was born in the same London slums as Dickens was. Scarlet fever left him partly deaf. He compensated with shyness and sarcasm. Heaviside finished his only schooling in 1865. He was 16 and a top student, but he'd failed geometry. He loathed all that business of deducing one fact from another. He meant to invent knowledge not to compute it. Heaviside went to work as a telegrapher. That drew him into the study of electricity. Then he read Maxwell's new Treatise on Electricity and Magnetism , and it seemed to have mystical beauty. It changed his life. He quit work and sealed himself in a room in his family's house. There he reduced Maxwell's whole field theory into two equations. He gave electric theory its modern shape and form. Hertz got the credit for that. But in the fine print Hertz admits his ideas came from Heaviside. Next Heaviside picked up the radical new idea of vector analysis. His most important ally was the reclusive American genius

Extractions: Oliver Heaviside 's parents were Rachel Elizabeth West and Thomas Heaviside. Thomas was a wood engraver and water colour artist. Oliver, the youngest of his parents four sons, was born at 55 King Street in Camden Town. He caught scarlet fever when he was a young child and this affected his hearing. This was to have a major effect on his life, making his childhood unhappy with relations between himself and other children difficult. However his school results were rather good and in 1865 he was placed fifth from 500 pupils. Academic subjects seemed to hold little attraction for Heaviside however and at age 16 he left school. Perhaps he was more disillusioned with school than with learning since he continued to study after leaving school, in particular he learnt Morse code, studied electricity and studied further languages in particular Danish and German. He was aiming at a career as a telegrapher and in this he was advised and helped by his uncle Charles Wheatstone (the piece of electrical apparatus known as the Wheatstone bridge is named after him). In 1868 Heaviside went to Denmark and became a telegrapher. He progressed quickly in his profession and returned to England in 1871 to take up a post in Newcastle upon Tyne in the office of Great Northern Telegraph Company which dealt with overseas traffic.

Extractions: Oliver Heaviside F.R.S Renowned electrical engineer, physicist and mathematician A personal sketch by a direct family descendant For more information: alan@alanheather.com Biography Bibliography WHEN I moved to Paignton in 1959 I had no idea that buried near my new home was a famous member of my family, Oliver Heaviside. My mother - she was a Heaviside - would speak of Oliver but until I went to school and learned about a Heaviside Layer around the Earth off which radio signals 'bounced' I knew little of him, except he was deaf and had sandy red hair and piercing eyes which frightened children. When Oliver Heaviside moved in 1897 from Paignton to Newton Abbot, few people would have known they had an eminent scientist living there. An outstanding physicist and mathematician, in a few years he would explain in a now world-famous prediction why wireless waves were able to travel around the Earth and not be lost in space. Oliver, then 47 years old, was already well known for his work on the science of long distance telegraphy and telephone systems, and was made a Fellow of the Royal Society. An 'oddity' rather than an eccentric, he was a bachelor with an impish sense of humour. He spent much time studying and writing scientific papers in complete solitude. As a result he was often not understood by local people. Hampered by deafness, he suffered from gout and was constantly plagued with bouts of jaundice, one of which was to cost him his life. But he was not always unhappy.

Heaviside independently and almost simultaneously announce the probable existence of a layer of ionised gas, high in the atmosphere, that affects the propogation of radio waves and enables them to follow the curvature of the earth. http://www.cequel.co.uk/acclarke/shc.html Heaviside, Oliver (1850-1925), British physicist, born in London and self-educated. In 1902 Heaviside correctly predicted the existence of the ionosphere, an electrically conducting layer in the atmosphere, by means of which radio signals are transmitted around the earth's curvature. He applied mathematics to the study of electric circuits and of wave motion. Microsft Encarta In 1902, the American electrical engineer Arthur Edwin Kennelly and the British physicist and electrician Oliver Heaviside , independently and almost simultaneously, announced the probable existence of a layer of ionized gas high in the atmosphere that affects the propagation of radio waves. This layer, formerly called the Heaviside or Kennelly-Heaviside layer, is one of several layers in the ionosphere. Although the ionosphere is transparent to the shortest radio waves, it bends or reflects the longer waves. Because of its reflection, radio waves can be propagated far beyond the horizon.

Extractions: Heaviside, Oliver Heaviside studied electricity and languages on his own. He became a telegrapher and began working on results in electricity. He wrote two papers that caught the interest of Maxwell . Thereafter, Maxwell's work inspired Heaviside. Heaviside was able to simplify Maxwell's 20 equations into the two we now call Maxwell's equations. Heaviside's contributions in mathematics were in the areas of vector algebra and vector calculus. Using his methods he was able to efficiently solve systems of differential equations . He worked with Gibbs (in mathematics) and Thomson (in electricity).

He did valuable work in telephony and in the theory of electrical conduction in cables and other areas of electric theory. He suggested (1902) the existence of a layer in the upper atmosphere responsible for altering the path of certain radio waves and thus making possible long-distance transmission of signals. The same conclusion was reached independently by Arthur E. Kennelly; its existence was proven, and it is known both as the Kennelly-Heaviside layer and as the Heaviside layer.
