Daniel Bernoulli was a Swiss mathematician who lived from 1700 to 1782 and made important contributions to mathematics and physics. His work laid foundations for understanding how fluids behave and helped develop the mathematical principles that explain phenomena from airplane wings to water flowing through pipes.

Encyclopedic overview
Daniel Bernoulli (8 February [O.S. 29 January] 1700 – 27 March 1782) was a Swiss mathematician and physicist and was one of the many prominent mathematicians in the Bernoulli family from Basel. He is particularly remembered for his applications of mathematics to mechanics, especially fluid mechanics, and for his pioneering work in probability and statistics. His name is commemorated in the Bernoulli's principle, a particular example of the conservation of energy, which describes the mathematics of the mechanism underlying the operation of two important technologies of the 20th century: the carburetor and the aeroplane wing.
