Gerard of Brussels (French: Gérard de Bruxelles, Latin: Gerardus Bruxellensis) was an early thirteenth-century geometer and philosopher known primarily for his Latin book Liber de motu (On Motion), which was a pioneering study in kinematics, probably written between 1187 and 1260. It has been described as "the first Latin treatise that was to take the fundamental approach to kinematics that was to characterize modern kinematics." He brought the works of Euclid and Archimedes back into popularity and was a direct influence on the Oxford Calculators (four kinematicists of Merton College) in the next century. Gerard is cited by Thomas Bradwardine in his Tractatus de proportionibus velocitatum (1328). His chief contribution was in moving away from Greek mathematics and closer to the notion of

  • Gerhard von Brüssel (lat: Gerardus Bruxellensis, nl.: Gerard van Brussel, frz.: Gérard de Bruxelles, en.: Gerard of Brussels) (Werke ca. 1187–1260) war ein Geometer und Philosoph des frühen 13. Jahrhunderts. Sein Leben und seine Karriere bleiben im Dunklen. Gerard spielte eine Rolle in der Entwicklung der Kinematik und der Vermessung geometrischer Formen. Er wurde in erster Linie bekannt für sein Buch Liber de motu (Über Bewegung), ein aus sechs Handschriften bestehendes, grundlegendes Werk der Kinematik, das wahrscheinlich zwischen 1187 und 1260 entstand. Er wird in seiner Handschrift als Magister bezeichnet und da er anscheinend auch den Liber philotegni de triangulis von kannte, ordnet ihn Marshall Clagett in das universitäre Umfeld ein, möglicherweise in Paris. Er machte die Werke von Euklid und Archimedes wieder populär und war ein Ideengeber der Oxford Calculators. Thomas Bradwardine zitiert Gerard in seinem Werk Tractatus de proportionibus velocitatum (1328). Sein Hauptbeitrag war seine Abwendung von der Griechischen Mathematik und die Herausbildung der Vorstellung des Verhältnisses zweier ungleicher Quantitäten wie Entfernung und Zeit, so wie moderne Physik Geschwindigkeit definiert.
