Perhaps the most important contribution of Antoni Kasimierz Oppenheim (Tony) to science was his gasdynamic perspective that he brought to the analysis of combustion and explosion phenomena. This perspective started with his two Ph.D. theses of 1944: "Investigation of High-Speed Flow of Gases in Channels [1]" (University of London) and "Some Applications of the Theory of Flow to Internal Combustion Engines [2]" (Imperial College of Science and Technology). The former provided a gas dynamic formulation for one-dimensional compressible flow of ideal gases (based on Busemann's Hand-Buch der Experimentalphyik), while the latter applied this theoretical formulation to improve the efficiency of internal combustion engines. This two-pronged theme dominated his research for more than 60 years.
