John Ericsson

John Ericsson, nato Johan (Långban, 31 luglio 1803 – New York, 8 marzo 1889), è stato un inventore, imprenditore e armatore svedese naturalizzato statunitense, attivo in Inghilterra e negli Stati Uniti e considerato uno dei più influenti ingegneri meccanici di sempre. Ericsson collaborò alla progettazione della locomotiva a vapore Novelty, che partecipò alle Rainhill Trials sulla ferrovia Liverpool-Manchester, vinta dalla locomotiva Rocket di George Stephenson. In America, in collaborazione con il capitano Robert Stockton, che lo ha ingiustamente accusato di un incidente mortale, ha progettato la prima fregata a vapore con propulsione a elica della marina americana USS Princeton.
