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.

Thermoelastic Stresses in Thick-Walled Vessels Under Thermal Transients via the Inverse Route
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A common threat to thick-walled vessels and pipes is thermal shock from operational steady state or transient thermoelastic stresses. As such, boundary conditions must be known or determined in ...
Numerical Simulations of an Active-Stressing Technique for Delaying Fracture During Cutting of Alumina
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: During a variety of high-speed cutting operations that can include both laser and traditional saw methods, full workpiece support is not always practical or even possible. As a result, costly ...
Active Stressing and the Micromanipulation of Stress-States for Delaying Fracture During Unsupported Laser Cutting
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: During a variety of high-speed cutting operations that can include both laser and traditional saw methods, full workpiece support is not always practical or even possible. As a result, costly ...
Welding of Alumina Using a Pulsed Dual-Beam CO2 Laser
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Despite the many advantages of using lasers for welding ceramics (alumina in particular), cracks induced by the resulting and severe thermal stresses are often detrimental to weld quality and ...
An Inverse Method for the Determination of Thermal Stress-Intensity Factors Under Arbitrary Thermal-Shocks
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The analysis of stress-intensity factors is of immense importance when designing vessels, pipes, and end-caps as well as supporting structures and plates seen in high-temperature applications. ...
Transient Surface Strains and the Deconvolution of Thermoelastic States and Boundary Conditions
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Thermoelastic states as they pertain to thermal-shock are difficult to determine since the underlying boundary conditions must be known or measured. For direct problems where the boundary conditions ...
Approximate Direct and Inverse Relationships for Thermal and Stress States in Thick-Walled Vessels Under Thermal Shock
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Approximate solutions were derived for the transient through steady-state thermal-stress fields developed in thick-walled vessels subjected to a potentially arbitrary thermal shock. In order to ...
Mode-I Stress-Intensity Factors for a Cracked Slab Under an Arbitrary Thermal Shock
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A stress intensity factor solution for a cracked slab subjected to an arbitrary thermal shock on one surface has been derived. As a first step, the transient temperature distribution was ...
Direct and Inverse Solutions for Thermal- and Stress-Transients and the Analytical Determination of Boundary Conditions Using Remote Temperature or Strain Data
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: From an analytical standpoint, a majority of calculations use known boundary conditions (temperature or flux) and the so-called direct route to determine internal temperatures, strains, and/or ...
Localized Autofrettage as a Design Tool for the Fatigue Improvement of Cross-Bored Cylinders
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: An investigation was launched into the feasibility of improving the fatigue life of thick-walled cylinders with cross-bores by using a localized autofrettage technique. This technique utilized the ...
