  Description     : fully-featured pendant drop tensiometry software

OpenDrop is a fully-featured pendant drop tensiometry software,
allowing acquisition, analysis and fitting of pendant drop profiles to
obtain surface and interfacial tension. OpenDrop also includes
functionality for measuring sessile drop contact angles.

OpenDrop was developed by a team in Melbourne, Victoria, working
across three main institutions: Monash University (School of
Chemistry), the University of Melbourne (Department of Mathematics and
Statistics and Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering) and the CSIRO.
The code authors/maintainers are Drs Michael Neeson, Joe Berry and
Rico Tabor, and E .Huang.

If you use this software in your research, please cite the following
journal articles:

pendant drop tensiometry. Journal of Colloid and Interface Science 454
(2015) 226–237. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jcis.2015.05.012

E. Huang, T. Denning, A. Skoufis, J. Qi, R. R. Dagastine, R. F. Tabor
and J. D. Berry, OpenDrop: Open-source software for pendant drop
tensiometry & contact angle measurements, submitted to the Journal of
Open Source Software

These citations help us not only to understand who is using and
developing OpenDrop, and for what purpose, but also to justify
continued development of this code and other open source resources.

To be packaged under the Debichem team, unless the packager's whim
lands it under the Debian Science Team.
