Colin Campbell, a Westminster College junior physics major, recently presented his research at the American Physical Society – Division of Fluid Dynamics 58th annual meeting in Chicago.
The research, "The De-pinning Transition of Periodically Vibrated Sessile Drops," was conducted during the summer with Dr. Craig Caylor, assistant professor of physics.
"The data presented is about the strength of the force that pins water droplets to surfaces for different sizes of water droplets," Caylor said.
Campbell is a son of Tom and Rose Campbell, Poland, Ohio, and a graduate of Canfield High School.
