This article examines the numerical estimation of molecular surface areas within the model of overlapping atomic spheres. One has the choice of either basing the estimate on all elements that contribute to the surface, or of ignoring systematically some elements in the interatomic clefts. It is argu

This choice of timescale makes the scaled surface tension equal to 1; i.e., the A system of partial differential equations that approximate the governing equations for inviscid free surface flow subject to surface Weber number is set to one. Henceforth, only th
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
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
## Abstract A novel method to calculate the derivatives of solvent accessible surface areas is presented. Unlike earlier analytic methods, which require the molecular topology and the use of global GaussβBonnet theorem, this method requires only the fractional accessibilities of surface arcs. We de
