Maks Danilovich Khaskind originated from the Kherson region, Ukraine. He graduated in 1937 in mathematics and physics from Odessa University. Shortly later, he gained his PhD degree on a topic in water waves from the Moscow State University. In the 1950s, Khaskind defended his doctoral theses on the maneuverability of ships. He was a Lecturer in hydromechanics and naval engineering at Nikolaev Ship Building Institute from 1937 to 1941, and joined from 1943 to 1950 TsAGI, the Central Aero-Hydrodynamics Institute, Leningrad. From 1950, Khaskind chaired the Electrotechnical Institute of Odessa. He was awarded the A.N. Krylov Premium, thereby commemorating one of the greatest naval researchers of the early 20th century.

The scientific interests of Khaskind were mainly in wave theory and in the hydraulic resistance of water waves. He also investigated diffusion effects of these waves, and made notable research on the resistance of naval bodies, thereby including the advances of Alexei Nikolaevich Krylov (1863-1945). Khaskind made a mathematical approach for the infinitely long ship. He also advanced the theory of gliding on a fluid surface, and he developed the theory of unsteady bodies moving in a liquid. He further analyzed the theory of wave damping and wave impedance. He expanded results from acoustics to those of hydro-acoustics. Khaskind investigated the thin wing theory by accounting for the compressibility of air. Finally, his works in electromagnetic wave refraction may also be mentioned.
