Implicit solvation: Products, Problems and limitations & Effects unaccounted for

Implicit solvation (sometimes termed continuum solvation) is a method to represent solvent as a continuous medium instead of individual "explicit" solvent molecules, most often used in molecular dynamics simulations and in other applications of molecular mechanics. The method is often applied to estimate free energy of solute-solvent interactions in…
