Hello everyone!
I would like to compute the melting point of a drug crystalline system. In
the literature, there exist a good number of methods to do so!
Among them, I read Gibbs-Duhem integration technique in which one needs to
provide a reference coexistence of solid/liquid. I read some articles in
which they studied the melting point of water and also some ionic crystals.
But I would like to know whether you can suggest me some more materials to
read to find some ideas how to choose the reference structure for drug
crystals?
At the end, I would like to perform this simulation using gromacs. So if you
think there are other methods which are more straight forward, would be great
to let me know.
Best
G.
