โœฆ Synopsis


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 most accurate points distribution available. Direct comparisons (on the same computer) with other known fast algorithms are performed. The comparisons show that this algorithm is the fastest when accurate calculation of the van der Waals surface is required and is at least as fast as the fastest competitor algorithm for the evaluation of the solvent accessible surface area.

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

## Abstract Based on the molecular face (MF) theory, the molecular face surface area (MFSA) and molecular face volume (MFV) are defined. For a variety of organic molecules and several inorganic molecules, the MFSA and MFV have been studied and calculated in terms of an algorithm of our own via the
