✦ Synopsis
The solid-liquid interfacial free energy has been estimated by a broken-bond model modified to take the entropy loss of the liquid in contact with the crystal into account. The predictions for f.c.c., h.c.p., b.c.c., diamond and s.c. structures are compared with experimental data from supercooling and dihedral angle measurements.

## Abstract A method to compute the interfacial excess free energy of systems where a liquid phase is interacting with a solid phase is presented. The calculations are carried out by means of molecular dynamics simulations. The algorithm is based on a thermodynamic integration scheme that reversibl
