FIGURE 5.1
Comparisons of the excess coordination numbers for mixtures of methanol
+ water, benzene + methanol,
N
-methylacetamide + water, and zwitterionic glycine + water
using four commonly used biomolecular force fields. Error bars are not shown for clarity (see
Figure 5.2 for typical values). Please note the different
y
-axis scales. The GROMOS NMA +
HOH points were calculated using unconverged RDFs.
