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.

Approximate Description of Crack Kinking and Curving
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: An approximate description is given of the slightly out-of-plane growth of a straight crack under mixed-mode loading and in the presence of an in-plane stress. By using a perturbation technique, ...
Surface Instability and Splitting in Compressed Brittle Elastic Solids Containing Crack Arrays
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Surface instability in brittle solids may occur at relatively small values of the inplane compressive force if the solid contains shallow cracks parallel to its free surface. The instability ...
Minimum Spacing of Thermally Induced Cracks in Brittle Solids: Addendum
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Sharper lower bounds for the minimum spacing of thermally induced tension cracks in brittle half-planes are presented, and four previous [1] numerical estimates are improved.
Minimum Spacing of Thermally Induced Cracks in Brittle Solids
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: When the temperature at the free surface of a linearly elastic brittle half-plane, which is initially uniform throughout the solid, is suddenly reduced by a large amount and then kept constant ...
