- David_Gordon_Wilson abstract "David Gordon Wilson (born 1928) is emeritus professor of engineering at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT).Born in Warwickshire, England, Wilson came to the U.S. on a post-doctoral fellowship in 1955. He returned to Britain in 1957 to work in the gas-turbine industry. He taught engineering in Nigeria from 1958 - 60. He started a branch of a US company in London and in 1961 was moved to the US. In 1966 he joined the MIT faculty and taught engineering design and pursued a long-standing interest into human-powered transport, coauthoring Bicycling Science. He is credited, along with Chester Kyle, with starting the modern recumbent bicycle movement in the USA. One of the most famous[citation needed] recumbent bicycles, the Avatar 2000 was designed by Wilson and Richard Forrestall in 1980. Tim Gartside (Australia) rode it as the Avatar Bluebell (UK) to a world record (51.9 mile/h) in the US in 1982.Wilson is the co-founder of Wilson Turbo Power Inc., which was founded in 2001 to commercialize two breakthrough energy technologies developed at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT).Wilson is the inventor of the 'Wilson Turbogenerator' which is currently being developed. An electrical efficiency of greater than 50% is claimed for his design. A prototype 300 kW microturbine was under development in 2008 when work was terminated and Wilson was removed from the board and, later, from his company.Wilson currently lives in Winchester, Massachusetts with his wife, Ellen, and daughter, Susan, a student at Winchester High School.".
