Durward William John Cruickshank (1924-2007) was a British crystallographer renowned for enhancing the accuracy of molecular structure determinations using X-ray crystal structure analysis. His significant contributions include developing the theoretical framework for anisotropic displacement parameters, or thermal ellipsoids, which are crucial for crystal structure determination. His influential work was published in a series of papers in 1956 in the journal Acta Crystallographica, marking a pivotal moment in the field of crystallography.
