Three-dimensional computerized imaging is a new modality of radiological imaging. This new technique transforms the two-dimensional slices of bi-plane CT into a three-dimensional picture by a computer's monitor adjusted to the system. This system enables the physician to rotate the angle of viewing of the desired region to any desired angle. Moreover, this system can delete certain features of different densities from the picture, such as silicone implants, thus improving visualization. Our preliminary results using this technique are presented. The advantages, pitfalls, and suggested future applications of this new technique in hand surgery are discussed.

Three-dimensional theatrical space is often taken for granted as a precondition of dance. Already in 1912, the choreographer Vaslav Nijinsky provoked much discussion with a work that seemingly turned the performance into a moving, two-dimensional picture. L'Après-midi d'un Faune has achieved notoriety because of the objections some contemporary critics raised against the ‘immoral’ behaviour of the principal character, but I argue the style of the work brought about an important shift in how dancing was conceptualised as something composed by a choreographic author.

Influence of Ba2+ ordering on cationic diffusion: (a) three-dimensional low Li+ ion diffusion using randomly substituted Ba2+, and (b) two-dimensional layered type high Li+ ion diffusion using specifically ordered substitution of Ba2+.

Interlayer diffusion of Co over steps of vacancy islands on the Pt(111) surface as studied by scanning tunneling microscopy is presented. It is demonstrated that Co atoms descend Pt steps by an exchange diffusion process at the step edge with the Pt atoms. Further, the exchange diffusion process is observed to occur at the corners (kinks) of the vacancy islands. The importance of kinks concerning whether the growth mode of a heteropitaxial film is two-dimensional or three-dimensional is demonstrated for the case of thin Co films on Pt(111). We argue that the strain in the Co film is to a large extent responsible for the kink formation.

Two novel polymers exhibiting metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) have been synthesized by the combination of a metal ion with a benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxylate ligand (BTC) and 1,10-phenanthroline (phen) under hydrothermal conditions. The first compound, poly[[(μ4-benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxylato-κ4 O:O′:O′′:O′′′)(μ-hydroxido-κ2 O:O)bis(1,10-phenanthroline-κ2 N,N′)dizinc(II)] 0.32-hydrate], {[Zn2(C9H3O6)(OH)(C12H8N2)2]·0.32H2O} n , denoted Zn–MOF, forms a two-dimensional network in which a binuclear Zn2 cluster serves as a 3-connecting node; the BTC trianion also acts as a 3-connecting centre. The overall topology is that of a 63 net. The phen ligands serve as appendages to the network and interdigitate with phen ligands belonging to adjacent parallel sheets. The second compound, poly[[(μ6-benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxylato-κ7 O 1,O 1′:O 1:O 3:O 3′:O 5:O 5′)(μ3-hydroxido-κ2 O:O:O)(1,10-phenanthroline-κ2 N,N′)dimanganese(II)] 1.26-hydrate], {[Mn2(C9H3O6)(OH)(C12H8N2)]·1.26H2O} n , denoted Mn–MOF, exists as a three-dimensional network in which an Mn4 cluster serves as a 6-connecting unit, while the BTC trianion again plays the role of a 3-connecting centre. The overall topology is that of the rutile net. Phen ligands act as appendages to the network and form the `S-shaped' packing mode.

Mitral stenosis is an important cause of heart valve disease globally. Echocardiography is the main imaging modality used to diagnose and assess the severity and hemodynamic consequences of mitral stenosis as well as valve morphology. Transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) is sufficient for the management of most patients. The focus of this review is the role of current two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) echocardiographic imaging for the evaluation of mitral stenosis.

AbstractThe probability of extremely high waves is calculated by two methods. The first method is based on the direct numerical simulation of two-dimensional wave field using a three-dimensional nonlinear model. The second method consists in calculation of the probability of wave heights over ensemble of fields representing a superposition of linear waves with random phases and a spectrum similar to that obtained in the nonlinear model. It is shown that the integral probability of extreme waves are very close to each other in both cases. This implies that the role of nonlinearity in the generation of extreme waves is probably not so important as it was assumed in most papers considering this phenomenon.

Abstract Two-dimensional (2D) materials have been widely investigated for the last few years, introducing nanosheets and ultrathin films. The often superior electrical, optical and mechanical properties in contrast to their three-dimensional (3D) bulk counterparts offer a promising field of opportunities. Especially new research fields for already existing and novel applications are opened by downsizing and improving the materials at the same time. Some of the most promising application fields are namely supercapacitors, electrochromic devices, (bio-) chemical sensors, photovoltaic devices, thermoelectrics, (photo-) catalysts and membranes. The role of oxides in this field of materials deserves a closer look due to their availability, durability and further advantages. Here, recent progress in oxidic nanosheets is highlighted and the benefit of 2D oxides for applications discussed in-depth. Therefore, different synthesis techniques and microstructures are compared more closely.
