Joseph Proudman (1888–1974) was a British mathematician, particularly known for his significant contributions to fluid dynamics and the theory of waves. He played a crucial role in the development of the mathematical understanding of oceanography and atmospheric science. Proudman is also known for Proudman's theorem, which relates to the motion of inviscid fluids and describes conditions under which a surface wave can travel in a fluid. His work has had lasting implications in the fields of applied mathematics and physics.
