“…Computational straightforwardness and low uncertainty of bulk densities render this property optimal for the evaluation of the glass transition temperature by the trend shift method . Typically, a bilinear fit interpolating the dependences of the density of liquid and glass on temperature separately can be employed. , Such an approach contained some arbitrariness in the assignment of the temperature intervals of both regimes to be interpolated linearly so that automated protocols have been devised. , These exploit either a more sophisticated hyperbola fit to circumvent the deviations from linear trends close to the actual glass transition temperature , or a protocol minimizing the residual squares related to concurrent bilinear interpolation of the liquid and glassy branches without omitting any data points close to the expected trend shift. , …”
