  • A new species of the rajid genus Okamejei is described from a single specimen (295 mm TL) from off Shantou, Gwangdong in the South China Sea. The new species differs from all other congeners in the following combination of characters: snout pointed, dorsal head length 6.7 times interorbital width, tail moderately wide and long, its length 48.5% TL, interdorsal distance less than length of first dorsal fin base, postdorsal tail short as 5.8% TL, small evenly distributed dark brownish spots, without ocelli on dorsal surface of disc, pores of ampullae of Lorenzini on ventral surface distributed from snout tip to distal end of metapterygium, scapulocoracoid high, its height about 1.4 times rear corner height, trunk vertebrae 23, predorsal tail vertebrae 50 and pectoral fin radials 96.

  • Tests using a middle velocity propulsion impact machine (MVPIM) were performed to verify the impact resistance capability of sandwich concrete panels (SCP) in a modular liquefied natural gas (LNG) outer tank, and numerical models were constructed and analyzed. $2{\times}2m$ specimens with plain sectional characteristics and specimens including a joint section were used. A 51 kg missile was accelerated above 45 m/s and impacted to have the design code kinetic energy. Impact tests were performed twice according to the design code and once for the doubled impact speed. The numerical models for simulating impact behaviors were created by LS-DYNA. The external steel plate and filled concrete of the panel were modeled as solid elements, the studs as beam elements, and the steel plates as elasto-plastic material with fractures; the CSCM material model was used for concrete. The front plate deformations demonstrated good agreement with those of other tests. However the rear plate deformations were less. In the doubled speed test for the plain section specimen, the missile punctured both plates; however, the front plate was only fractured in the numerical analysis. The impact energy of the missile was transferred to the filled concrete in the numerical analysis.
