The two types of curved elements used to discretize accessible and molecular surfaces. A generalized spherical triangle (GST) (A), is a three-sided region on the surface of a sphere bounded by three circular arcs. These arcs are not necessarily geodesic arcs. Torus patches on molecular surfaces are discretized using toroidal elements (B), which are isomorphic to a rectangle.
