“…To circumvent this problem, several methods providing enhanced sampling of rare events, such as harmonic and adaptive umbrella sampling, thermodynamic integration, metadynamics, , the Widom test particle insertion method and its cavity insertion variant, or potential of mean force (PMF) calculation by, for example, constrained molecular dynamics, , have been proposed over the years. These methods of solvation free energy calculation have been applied for a number of ionic − and nonionic penetrants ,− at various fluid interfaces in the past decades, complementing theoretical predictions based on various continuum dielectric calculations. , …”
