Alexander Kleshchev graduated from the V. I. Lenin Electrotechnical Institute, Russia, in 1960 and went on to work at the A. N. Krylov Central Research Institute, Russia. Since 1965 he has been working at the St. Petersburg Marine Technical University (former Shipbuilding Institute). In 1969, he defended his PhD thesis, and in 2009-a doctoral dissertation for the degree of Doctor of Physical and Mathematical sciences and in 2012 he received the title of professor. He is the author of 195 publications, including 17 books, such as Hydroacoustic Scatterers (1992, 2012), Diffraction and Propagation of Waves on Elastic Media and Bodies (2002), Diffraction, Radiation, and Propagation of Elastic Waves (2006, 2017), Diffraction, Radiation and Propagation of Elastic Waves in Isotropic and Anisotropic Bodies (2019), Elastic Wave Dynamics Problems (2021), The Dynamics of Elastic Structures (2021), Isotropic and Anisotropic Scatterers and Waveguides (2022), Modern Problems of Acoustics and Hydroacoustics (2022).
