Biography

Daniel D. Joseph is recognized among Jewish contributors to Science & Medicine — Fluid dynamicist of viscoelastic flows; Timoshenko Medal (1995)

How & why

Joseph was an American mechanical engineer at the University of Minnesota widely known for research on the fluid dynamics of viscoelastic liquids, hydrodynamic stability and solid-liquid flows, author of some 400 papers and several books; he received the Timoshenko Medal in 1995. He held 10 patents over a long, celebrated career. Widely available biographies document his engineering work but do not record a Jewish identity; he appears on a subject roster of Jews in continuum mechanics.
