ASME ( American Society of Mechanical Engineers )
Description: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) is a professional association that, in its own words, "promotes the art, science, and practice of multidisciplinary engineering and allied sciences around the globe" via "continuing education, training and professional development, codes and standards, research, conferences and publications, government relations, and other forms of outreach." ASME is thus an engineering society, a standards organization, a research and development organization, a lobbying organization, a provider of training and education, and a nonprofit organization. Founded as an engineering society focused on mechanical engineering in North America, ASME is today multidisciplinary and global.

Determination of the Unloading Boundary in Longitudinal Elastic-Plastic Stress Wave Propagation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: For several types of excitation of one-dimensional elastic-plastic stress waves in a rod, unloading waves propagate which interact with the loading waves. The moving boundary at which this ...
Determination of the Unloading Boundary in Transverse Impact of an Elastic-Plastic String
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: When a thin, elastic-plastic wire is transversely impacted, both longitudinal and transverse loading waves propagate. For certain types of excitation, unloading waves also propagate, and they ...
Three-Dimensional Coordinate Data Processing in Human Motion Analysis
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A method for three-dimensional coordinate processing of human motion is presented. The method is well suited for use with opto-electronic data acquisition equipment. A resolution of one part in ...
Mechanical Properties of Human Lumbar Spine Motion Segments—Part II: Responses in Compression and Shear; Influence of Gross Morphology
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this second part of a three-part report, we consider the mechanical behavior of 42 fresh human cadaver lumbar motion segments in compression, and in anterior, posterior, and lateral shear. ...
Determination of the Stress-Strain Relations in a Wire Under Transverse Impact
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Material Behavior in Wires of 1100 Aluminum Subjected to Transverse Impact
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Material behavior in wires of 1100 aluminum subject to tensile impact loading is examined. Room temperature behavior is observed over the entire range of the stress-strain relation by observation ...
Experimental Evaluation of Material Behavior in a Wire Under Transverse Impact
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Results are reported from an experiment involving photographic observation of constant-velocity transverse impact on long wires of annealed pure copper, two pure aluminums, and an aluminum alloy. ...
Mechanical Properties of Human Lumbar Spine Motion Segments—Part I: Responses in Flexion, Extension, Lateral Bending, and Torsion
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this first part of a three-part report, the mechanical behavior of 42 fresh human cadaver lumbar motion segments in flexion, extension, lateral bending, and torsion is examined. Motions and ...
The Mechanical Role of the Trunk and Lower Extremities in a Seated Weight-Moving Task in the Sagittal Plane
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A two-dimensional, sagittally-symmetric biomechanical model was developed to analyze the joint moments required to stabilize the trunk in a seated, dynamic, weight-moving task. Kinematic and reaction ...
Material Constants for a Finite Element Model of the Intervertebral Disk With a Fiber Composite Annulus
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A simple axisymmetric finite element model of a human spine segment containing two adjacent vertebrae and the intervening intervertebral disk was constructed. The model incorporated four substructures: ...
