A new fast and accurate algorithm for numerical calculation of the van der Waals and solvent accessible surface areas based on the sorted table of cosines is described. This algorithm does not depend upon the particular distribution of the points on the sphere surface, and thus allows use of the mos

Several points distributions have been used to calculate van der Waals surface areas of a set of molecules. It is shown that there is no strict correlation between the global statistical characteristics of the points distribution, such as deviation and standard deviation, and the accuracy of the cal
Suppose that S is a linear combination of integer translates of a box spline on a 3-direction mesh that is restricted to a bounded region. The paper shows that the surface area of the control net decreases under subdivision and converges linearly to the surface area of S. A lower bound is also given
It is shown that the molecular surface and the accessible surface lead to exactly the same results when calculating solvation free energies and transfer free energies, from methods using the surface tension as a parameter if the exact geometric curvature is used with the accessible surface. However,
Using experimental solubilities and partial pressures for hydrocarbon solution in water and molecular dynamics calculations of hydrocarbon water interaction energies, hydrocarbon-water cavity potentials are obtained and then plotted vs. accessible surface area. The data used is mainly for aliphatic
