What is the relationship between the isosurface of a set of atoms and that of a subset of the atoms? I kind of expected that the latter be a subset of the former one, but that doesn't seem to be the case. Indeed, by selecting only some atoms, in fact none of the triangles I get appear in the isosurface of the full molecule. For comparing two triangles I compare the vertex positions and values, sorted in a canonical order, so that two triangles with permuted vertices are still considered equal.
What I need is to get the potential-mapped sasurface partitioned by groups of atoms. If I select one group of atoms at a time and compute their sasurface, will that correctly cover the whole molecule? Is there any guarantee that 1) the group sasurfaces do not overlap (as long as the groups constitute a valid "partition" of the molecule, i.e., they do not overlap and together they contain all atoms of the molecule), and 2) considering them together will result in a surface covering the full molecule, without any "cracks"? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
