The mathematical statement is sometimes attributed to, or named in honor of, the German Mathematician Gottfried Wilhelm Leibnitz (1646-1716) and the British fluid dynamics engineer Osborne Reynolds (1842-1912) due to their work and contributions related to the theorem. Hence it follows that the transport theorem, or alternate forms of the theorem, may be named the Leibnitz theorem in mathematics and Reynolds transport theorem in mechanics. 

Gottfried Wilhelm Leibnitz (or Leibniz), bom Jul. 1, 1646, in Leipzig, Germany, died Nov. 14, 1716, in Hannover, Germany. 

Flooke s work - his experimental results cast into a simple mathematical model - form a conceptual bridge to the findings or inventions of two of the most influential mathematicians of modern times. Gottfried Leibnitz (1646-1716) and Isaac Newton (1642-1727) drew together strands of thought centuries old to synthesise calculus, the mathematical modelling system that has remained the centrepiece of applied maths to the present day, only now yielding to other formulations because superannuated by its requirement for continuities of some kind in the processes it can be used to examine.
