Comparing the performance of two structural indicators for different water models while seeking for connections between structure and dynamics in the glassy regime [PDF]
, 2019 In this work, we compare the performance of two structural indicators based on the degree of translational order up to the second coordination shell in three water models: SPC/E, TIP4P/2005, and TIP5P.
