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.

Influence of Cardiac Flow Rate on Turbulent Shear Stress from a Prosthetic Heart Valve
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Elevated turbulent shear stresses associated with sufficient exposure times are potentially damaging to blood constituents. Since these conditions can be induced by mechanical heart valves, the ...
Convex Turbulent Boundary Layers With Zero and Favorable Pressure Gradients
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A turbulent boundary layer subjected to multiple, additional strain rates, namely convex curvature coupled with streamwise pressure gradients (zero and favorable, ZPG and FPG) was investigated ...
