CONEXis a Windows application for converting series of two-dimensional X-ray powder patterns measured on flat two-dimensional detectors into one-dimensional scattering patterns. It is based on the rigorous use of scattering patterns of calibration samples to determine the three-dimensional position of the detector, with respect to the sample and to the beam. This enables correction of the data for geometric distortions, even when the detector is highly tilted and not centred on the beam.

The X-ray structure, porous and magnetic property of a self-assembled network 1 is described in detail. The single crystal X-ray analysis provides 1 as a three-dimensional network, which contains two-dimensional permanent ring forming nanoscale one-dimensional channels. The inter-replacement of perchlorate and hexafluorophosphate anions in solid 1 proves its porous structure. There is somewhat strong antiferromagnetic interaction (J = −74.1 cm−1) between two copper(II) ions through oxalate bridge and weak antiferromagnetic interaction (J = −5.1 cm−1) through AEP ligand.

Two new metal–organic frameworks (MOFs), namely, three-dimensional poly[diaquabis{μ2-1,4-bis[(2-methyl-1H-imidazol-1-yl)methyl]benzene}bis(μ2-glutarato)dinickel(II)] monohydrate], {[Ni2(C5H6O4)2(C16H18N4)2(H2O)2]·H2O} n or {[Ni2(Glu)2(1,4-mbix)2(H2O)2]·H2O} n , (I), and two-dimensional poly[[{μ2-1,4-bis[(2-methyl-1H-imidazol-1-yl)methyl]benzene}(μ2-glutarato)zinc(II)] tetrahydrate], {[Zn(C5H6O4)(C16H18N4)]·4H2O} n or {[Zn(Glu)(1,4-mbix)]·4H2O} n (II), have been synthesized hydrothermally using glutarate (Glu2−) mixed with 1,4-bis[(2-methyl-1H-imidazol-1-yl)methyl]benzene (1,4-mbix), and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, IR and UV–Vis spectroscopy, powder X-ray diffraction, and thermogravimetric and photoluminescence analyses. NiII MOF (I) shows a 4-connected 3D framework with point symbol 66, but is not a typical dia network. ZnII MOF (II) displays a two-dimensional 44-sql network with one-dimensional water chains penetrating the grids along the c direction. The solid-state photoluminescence analysis of (II) was performed at room temperature and the MOF exhibits highly selective sensing toward Fe3+ and Cr2O7 2− ions in aqueous solution.

Composite preform fiber architectures range from the very simple to the complex, and the extremes are typified by parallel continuous fibers and complicated three-dimensional woven structures. Subsequent processing of these preforms to produce dense composites may depend critically on the geometry of the interfiber porosity. The goal of this study is to fully characterize the structure of a 0°/90° cloth layup preform using x-ray tomographic microscopy (XTM). This characterization includes the measurement of intercloth channel widths and their variability, the transverse distribution of through-cloth holes, and the distribution of preform porosity. The structure of the intercloth porosity depends critically on the magnitude and direction of the offset between adjacent cloth layers. The structures observed include two-dimensional networks of open pipes linking adjacent holes, arrays of parallel one-dimensional pipes linking holes, and relatively closed channels exhibiting little structure, and these different structures would appear to offer very different resistances to gas flow through the preform. These measurements, and future measurements for different fiber architectures, will yield improved understanding of the role of preform structure on processing.

Two novel cadmium coordination polymers, [Cd(pydc)2(tu)]n (1) and [Cd2(SO4)(nic)2(tu)1.5 - (H2O)2]n (2) (pydc = pyridine-2,3-dicarboxylate, nic = nicotinate, tu = thiourea), have been synthesized under hydrothermal conditions and structurally characterized by X-ray diffraction analysis. 1 is a one-dimensional ladder coordination polymer in a two-dimensional network formed by hydrogen bonds. 2 consists of two kinds of Cd(II) centers in different coordination environments connected via nicotinate and sulfate to form a two-dimensional grid network integrated in a three-dimensional framework generated by hydrogen bonds. 2 shows intense fluorescent emission in the solid state at room temperature

Two new co-crystals, tetraiodoethylene–phenanthridine (1/2), 0.5C2I4·C13H9N (1) and tetraiodoethylene–benzo[f]quinoline (1/2), 0.5C2I4·C13H9N (2), were obtained from tetraiodoethylene and azaphenanthrenes, and characterized by IR and fluorescence spectroscopy, elemental analysis and X-ray crystallography. In the crystal structures, C—I...π and C—I...N halogen bonds link the independent molecules into one-dimensional chains and two-dimensional networks with subloops. In addition, the planar azaphenanthrenes lend themselves to π–π stacking and C—H...π interactions, leading to a diversity of supramolecular three-dimensional structural motifs being formed by these interactions. Luminescence studies show that co-crystals 1 and 2 exhibit distinctly different luminescence properties in the solid state at room temperature.

The Navy’s mine impact burial prediction model creates a time history of a cylindrical or a noncylindrical mine as it falls through air, water, and sediment. The output of the model is the predicted mine trajectory in air and water columns, burial depth/orientation in sediment, as well as height, area, and volume protruding. Model inputs consist of parameters of environment, mine characteristics, and initial release. This paper reviews near three decades’ effort on model development from one to three dimensions: (1) one-dimensional models predict the vertical position of the mine’s center of mass (COM) with the assumption of constant falling angle, (2) two-dimensional models predict the COM position in the (x,z) plane and the rotation around the y-axis, and (3) three-dimensional models predict the COM position in the (x,y,z) space and the rotation around the x-, y-, and z-axes. These models are verified using the data collected from mine impact burial experiments. The one-dimensional model only solves one momentum equation (in the z-direction). It cannot predict the mine trajectory and burial depth well. The two-dimensional model restricts the mine motion in the (x,z) plane (which requires motionless for the environmental fluids) and uses incorrect drag coefficients and inaccurate sediment dynamics. The prediction errors are large in the mine trajectory and burial depth prediction (six to ten times larger than the observed depth in sand bottom of the Monterey Bay). The three-dimensional model predicts the trajectory and burial depth relatively well for cylindrical, near-cylindrical mines, and operational mines such as Manta and Rockan mines.

The theory of ultrasonic attenuation in metals is extended so that it applies to quasi one and two dimensional electronic systems. It is shown that the attenuation in such systems differs significantly from the well-known results for three dimensional systems. The difference is particularly marked for one dimensional systems, for which the attenuation is shown to be strongly temperature dependent.
