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.

Measurement of the Extensional and Flexural Rigidities of a Subcellular Structure: Marginal Bands Isolated From Erythrocytes of the Newt
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The elastic properties of marginal band, a microtubular structure isolated from the newt (notophthalmus viridescens ) have been measured. Bands were isolated using Triton X-100 and pepsin at pH ...
An Accurate Method of Evaluating Relaxation in Bolted Flanged Connections
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Bolted flanged joint assemblies may begin to leak some time following a successful hydrostatic test. One of the reasons is that the gasket experiences a drop in its initial compressive stress ...
The Effect of Gasket Creep-Relaxation on the Leakage Tightness of Bolted Flanged Joints
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The loss of tightness of bolted flanged joints is primarily due to the relaxation of the joint; in particular, the clamping load is affected by the amount of relaxation that a gasket exhibits ...
