We are proud to acknowledge Dr. Hany Elwany as a Lifetime Member
of the Coastal Education & Research Foundation. Dr. Elwany received a
B.S. degree in Engineering from Alexandria University in 1971. In 1977,
he completed his Ph.D. at the University of Dundee, United Kingdom.
He obtained an additional B.S. degree in Mathematics and Statistics
at Alexandria University in 1980. Dr. Elwany has extensive experience
with nearshore oceanography, coastal processes, coastal engineering, and
estuarine dynamics. He was the principal investigator for the physical
oceanographic program of one of the largest environmental studies ever
conducted on the U.S. west coast (at San Onofre). He has conducted indepth studies of Nile Delta erosion, particularly since the construction
of the Aswan Dam. His experience also includes projects involving
optimization, numerical modeling, structural dynamic analysis, design of
offshore structures, and data analyses, simulation, and dynamic modeling
of ocean and coastal conditions. As an educator, both at Liverpool and
Alexandria Universities, he taught courses in dynamics, statistics, numerical
analysis, computer applications, and maritime engineering.
