Vladimir Stefanovich Knoroz was born in Byelo-Russia close to the city of Paradino. He graduated in 1930 from the Leningrad Polytechnic Institute LPI as a civil engineer and there obtained also his doctoral title in 1940. After graduation, he moved to Central Asia as a hydraulic engineer and there was involved in drainage projects. He returned in 1933 to Leningrad as a collaborator of the Leningrad Hydraulics Laboratory VNIIG. During World War II Knoroz contributed to defense works and the setup of destroyed infrastructure. In 1950 he was transferred to Northern Korea as a Lecturer at the Phenyan Polytechnic Institute. After return to the Soviet Union, Knoroz continued works at VNIIG and was appointed professor of hydraulic engineering in 1966.

Knoroz investigated during his career particularly sediment transport. He proposed sediment entrainment velocities based on detailed laboratory and site observations which have become a standard in the Soviet Union. He also analyzed the distribution of sediment concentration in flumes which contained a well-defined percentage of suspended sediment. Knoroz was also interested in the resistance features of sediment transporting rivers based on sediment grain size and bed forms. He was a Russian hydraulician having contributed to the advance of river engineering in the 20th century.
