Dutch-Swiss mathematician and physicist Daniel Bernoulli was born #OTD in 1700.
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.
