Children and adolescents provided their impressions of stimulus faces that systematically varied in attractiveness and severity of cleft impairment. The results indicated that facial attractiveness is a consistent characteristic of cleft-impaired faces. However, facial attractiveness did not moderate the negative impact of cleft impairment on social perception. Reduced severity of impairment did moderate the negativity of social perception. The implications of these findings for our understanding of the effects of cleft impairment on social perceptions are discussed.

For an infrastructure construction located in marine environments, maintaining good durability for the structures always imposes serious challenges, especially for the structure made of reinforced concrete. Concrete exposed to marine environment may deteriorate as a result of combined effects of both physical and chemical actions from marine environment. Corrosion of the reinforced steel bars that are embedded in the concrete is the most serious problem. Therefore, a method to protect the reinforced concrete in the marine environment from damages due to material deterioration and corrosion is proposed in this study. The method is through the application of bentonite material by utilizing its very finely divided form so that the larger capillary pores in concrete can be filled up. In this way, the impermeability of concrete material can be enhanced and then improve the corrosion resistant ability of the material.

The dynamics of expanding domes of isothermal lava are studied by treating the lava as a viscoplastic material with the Herschel–Bulkley constitutive law. Thin-layer theory is developed for radially symmetric extrusions onto horizontal plates. This provides an evolution equation for the thickness of the fluid that can be used to model expanding isothermal lava domes. Numerical and analytical solutions are derived that explore the effects of yield stress, shear thinning and basal sliding on the dome evolution. The results are briefly compared with an experimental study. It is found that it is difficult to unravel the combined effects of shear thinning and yield stress; this may prove important to studies that attempt to infer yield stress from morphology of flowing lava.

An experimental study was undertaken to verify the combined effects of timber connector end distance and spacing requirements of the Canadian standard for engineering design in wood. A total of 130 test specimens using 63 mm diameter split rings were loaded to failure in tension. The split ring end distance varied between 50 and 210 mm and the spacing varied between 80 and 200 mm. Results show that a linear relation exists between the connector end distance and its resistance for a given spacing. Increase in spacing also results in an increase of the connector resistance for a given end distance. Also, connections with two connectors in a row can resist significant loads even if the end distance or spacing of one connector is below the standard minimum required value. Thus, the design philosophy of Clause 10.3.3 of the wood design standard is inadequate for these joints. Key words: split ring, tension, end distance, spacing, resistance, timber.
