    5. Suberites chujaensis n. sp. (Fig. 6) êöīfiƎḁḍ(ṳḋ) Type specimen. Holotype (NIBRIV0000879328), Korea: Chujado, Chuja-myeon, Jeju-si, Jeju-do, 9 Oct 2012, Kim HS, by SCUBA, depth 25 m, deposited in NIBR. Description. Thick, irregular elliptical mass sponge, size up to 13 × 6 × 2.5 cm. Surface with numerous protruding small bumps, not papillae. Oscules open on the surface, 1-2 mm in diameter. Color in life orange red. Texture firm and incompressible. Skeleton: Irregular arrangement of spicules mixed with dense collagen. Tylostyles, 500-700 μm and long tylostyles, partly curved or flexuous shape. Etymology. The species name, chujaensis, is named after the type locality of Chujado, Jeju-si, Jeju-do. Remarks.

    3. Pseudosuberites youngilensis n. sp. (Figs. 3, 4) šëffiīfiƎḁḍ (ṳḋ) Suberites ficus; Tanita S., 1965: 95-97. Kim, Rho and Sim, 1968: 40, pl. 2, fig. 9, text-fig. 10. Rho, Kim and Sim, 1969: 156, pl. 2, fig. 7. Type specimen. Holotype (NIBRIV0000879327), Korea: Yeongilman, Guman-ri, Homigot-myeon, Pohang-si, Gyeongsangbuk-do, 25 July 1967, Rho BJ, by fishing net, deposited in NIBR. Description. Irregular elliptical mass sponge, size up to 9 × 4.5 × 3 cm. Upper surface with lobate projections and underside smooth with a large hole, 1.5 × 1 cm in diameter. Pagurus pectinatus, a crustacean (hermit crab), resides in the hole. Oscules rare, 0.7-1 mm in diameter. Color in life orange red. Texture firm and compressible. Skeleton: Small tylostyles and microrhabds arranged tangentially at the surface. Large tylostyles showed at subsurface (Fig. 3C). Mostly small and large tylostrongyles appeared at the underside of the sponge near the hole (Fig. 4B). Numerous microrhabds appear at inside wall of the sponge hole. Spicules. Tylostrongyles, 70- 110-350 × 5-15 μm and tylostyles, 110-340 × 8-10 μm. Microrhabds, 20-35 μm. Etymology. The species name, youngilensis, is named after the type locality of Youngilman, Gyeongsangbuk-do. Remarks. This new species is easily distinguished from Suberites ficus Johnston (1842) in shape and spicules. Suberites ficus has a pear shape, surface even, without hole containing hermit crab, and also spicules without microscleres. This new species is not sessile, but independent because no part is attached to the substrate. There is no trace of any kind of shell in and out of the sponge. Tanita (1965) observed that specimens occupied by hermit crabs are very rare, however, most of our specimens contained hermit crabs in the underside hole. Lobate projection of the upper part of sponge is variable, some few large lobes or many small lobes.Published as part of Kim, Young A & Sim, Chung Ja, 2021, Ten new species of families Suberitidae and Polymastiidae (Demospongia: Heteroscleromorpha) from Korea, pp. 168-183 in Journal of Species Research 10 (2) on page 169, DOI: 10.12651/JSR.2021.10.2.168, http://zenodo.org/record/812001

    A multi-scale non-deterministic approach to composite curing process simulation

    No full text
    Thermosetting matrix composite materials are often subject to a curing process to enhance the mechanical properties of the final product.In recent years computational models of the curing process allowed for a remarkable time and cost compression with respect to trial and error procedures. Most of the proposed models, however, rely on deterministic hypothesis. In this paper a multi-scale non deterministic approach to cure process simulation has been proposed, evidencing the effect of stochastic perturbations of fibers distribution on simulative results on macro-scale
