Raoul Bricard (March 23, 1870 - November 26, 1943 ) was a French mathematician.
Bricard taught at the École Centrale des Arts et Manufactures and from 1908 as a professor of geometry at the Conservatoire National des Arts et Métiers .
Bricard dealt with joint mechanisms in kinematics and he did preliminary work to solve Hilbert's 3rd problem (see Max Dehn ). In 1922 he gave a proof of Morley's theorem .
In 1932 he received the Poncelet Prize .
