Summary. Joseph Fourier studied the mathematical theory of heat conduction. He established the partial differential equation governing heat diffusion and solved it by using infinite series of trigonometric functions. View eight larger pictures. Biography.

May 29, 2018 · The French mathematical physicist Jean Baptiste Joseph, Baron Fourier (1768-1830), was the first to discuss in a comprehensive manner the various aspects of the flow of heat in bodies. On March 21, 1768, J.B.J. Fourier was born in Auxerre.
Jean Baptiste Joseph Fourier (March 21, 1768 – May 16, 1830) was a French mathematician, physicist and government administrator during the reign of Napoleon who is best known for his study of heat conduction, and for using series of trigonometric functions, now called Fourier series, to solve difficult mathematical problems.
fourier, jean baptiste joseph (1768–1830) Every physical scientist knows the name Fourier; the Series, Integral, and Transform that bear his name are essential mathematical tools. Joseph Fourier's great achievement was to state the equation for the diffusion of heat.
