It is both an honour and a responsibility to deliver a lecture commemorating the names of two scientists who have made unique contributions to fluid dynamics, and whose names perhaps above all others will remain immortal in our subject. The range of topics that would be suitable for such a lecture is very wide, because there is scarcely a branch of fluid dynamics in which the work of Reynolds and Prandtl does not continue to play a significant part. In a lecture of current interest there is, therefore, no problem of relating the subject matter to the names to be commemorated; the influence of Reynolds and Prandtl remains as strong as when they were alive, and many of the problems that engaged their attention are even today only partially solved. The lecturer must, therefore, use other considerations for guidance in the selection of his subject from the limited range on which he is qualified to speak, for few could hope to work over the wide field covered by Reynolds and Prandtl. He must if possible select a, topic in which major contributions have originated from Germany and the United Kingdom, on which research is actively in progress in both countries, and for which progress has relied on the combination of theoretical and experimental work to provide acceptable simplifying assumptions that characterised many of the investigations of Reynolds and Prandtl.
