John Ronald Womersley (20 June 1907 – 7 March 1958) was a British mathematician and computer scientist who made important contributions to computer development, and hemodynamics. Nowadays he is principally remembered for his contribution to blood flow, fluid dynamics and the eponymous Womersley number, a dimensionless parameter characterising unsteady flow.

  • John R. Womersley (Morley, 20 de juny de 1907 - Columbus, 7 de març de 1958) va ser un matemàtic britànic. Va estudiar matemàtiques a l'Imperial College London, en el qual es va graduar el 1930, i posteriorment va treballar al Shirley Institute de Manchester, un institut de recerca de l'industria cotonera. Durant la Segona Guerra Mundial va treballar per al Ministeri de Subministraments. Al final de la guerra va ser nomenat superintendent de la Divisió de Matemàtiques del Laboratori Nacional de Física. Va encunyar el nom de Automatic Computing Engine (ACE) per a la primera computadora electrònica desenvolupada allà i va reclutar Alan Turing per treballar-hi. Se'l recorda principalment per la seva contribució a la dinàmica de fluids arterials i pel nombre de Womersley, una paràmetre adimens (ca)
