Why Is John V. Wehausen Influential?

(Suggest an Edit or Addition)

According to Wikipedia, John Vrooman Wehausen was an American applied mathematician considered to be one of the world's leading researchers and pioneers in the field of marine hydrodynamics. His contributions were in the area of ship waves, ship maneuverability, floating systems in waves, and ship-generated solitary waves. In 1960, he and Edmund V. Laitone published the comprehensive review article Surface Waves, which to this day is still an important resource for understanding the dynamics of water waves. Wehausen was emeritus professor of engineering science at the University of California, Berkeley.
