Famous engineers across the world
Nikola Tesla
Arguably at the top of the list of greatest engineers is Nikola Tesla. He was Serbian, and moved to America at the age of 28 to work with Thomas Edison. Tesla is perhaps one of the most underrated electrical engineers, and didn’t receive credit for a lot of his inventions.
There’s no doubt that he had a huge influence on society, though. His inventions include the induction motor, 3-phase electricity, fluorescent lighting and the Tesla coil. He also developed the AC current generation system made from a transformer and a motor.
Thomas Edison
Thomas Edison was an American inventor and referred to as a great businessman. He holds an astounding 1,097 patents, a record. He goes down as the most prolific inventor in history. A few of his many inventions include the motion picture camera and projector, the phonograph, and the incandescent lightbulb. Can you imagine life without the lightbulb?
Henry Ford
Henry Ford was an engineer and industrialist who founded the Ford Motor Company. The rest is history. Although not the inventor of the modern car, he developed assembly and production lines that brought about mass production – resulting in the first motor car that an average person could afford. As a result, he turned the automobile into something of a necessity rather than just a thing of curiosity.
Archimedes
A classic scientist in the making, Archimedes was a Greek engineer, mathematician, physicist and astronomer. He has had a lasting influence in these areas, and although very little is known about the man himself, his inventions have stood the test of time and laid the foundations for many modern designs. The Archimedes screw, which can raise water efficiently, is undoubtedly the most famous.
Nikolaus Otto
A German inventor, Nikolaus Otto is credited with the development of the four stroke engine. Also referred to as the Otto-cycle engine, his invention helped to initiate the development of motor cars. The same four steps of drawing in fuel and air, compressing the mixture then igniting it, and finally expelling through the exhaust is still the basis for our modern day combustion engines.
