Vedran Coralic, a graduate student working with Professor Tim Colonius, is the recipient of the 2015 Richard B. Chapman Memorial Award. Dr. Coralic performed numerical simulations of shocked-bubble dynamics in the microvasculature in order to characterize the mechanisms of tissue injury resulting from the collapse of preexisting bubbles in shockwave lithotripsy. The Richard B. Chapman Memorial Award is given to an EAS graduate student in hydrodynamics who has distinguished himself or herself in research.
