More About This Title Continuum Solvation Models in Chemical Physics -From Theory to Applications
English
- Devoted to solvation models in which reviews of the theory, the computational implementation
- Solvation continuum models are treated using the different points of view from experts belonging to different research fields
- Can be read at two levels: one, more introductive, and the other, more detailed (and more technical), on specific physical and numerical aspects involved in each issue and/or application
- Possible limitations or incompleteness of models is pointed out with, if possible, indications of future developments
- Four-colour representation of the computational modeling throughout.
