Abstract
Professor Zbigniew Pruszak, a distinguished Polish scientist, died on 2 May 2018 at the age of 71. He made outstanding contributions to hydraulic engineering, physical oceanography and civil engineering, including mechanics of water flow in rivers, sea and coastal zone, lithodynamics and morphodynamics of nearshore regions, as well as protection of sea shore against erosion and flooding. The field of coastal engineering has lost in him an eminent and very creative researcher.
期刊介绍:
Archives of Hydro-Engineering and Environmental Mechanics cover the broad area of disciplines related to hydro-engineering, including: hydrodynamics and hydraulics of inlands and sea waters, hydrology, hydroelasticity, ground-water hydraulics, water contamination, coastal engineering, geotechnical engineering, geomechanics, structural mechanics, etc. The main objective of Archives of Hydro-Engineering and Environmental Mechanics is to provide an up-to-date reference to the engineers and scientists engaged in the applications of mechanics to the analysis of various phenomena appearing in the natural environment.
