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.

The Effect of Local Thermal Nonequilibrium on the Onset of Convection in a Nanofluid
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The onset of convection in a horizontal layer of a nanofluid is studied analytically. The model used for the nanofluid incorporates the effects of Brownian motion and thermophoresis, and allows ...
Modeling of Transient Transport of Soluble Proteins in the Connecting Cilium of a Photoreceptor Cell
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A minimal mathematical model describing mass transport in the connecting cilium (CC) of a photoreceptor cell in response to a suddenly increased protein concentration at the base of the CC is ...
Numerical Modeling of In Vivo Plate Electroporation Thermal Dose Assessment
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Electroporation is an approach used to enhance the transport of large molecules to the cell cytosol in which a targeted tissue region is exposed to a series of electric pulses. The cell ...
Local Temperature Rises Influence In Vivo Electroporation Pore Development: A Numerical Stratum Corneum Lipid Phase Transition Model
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Electroporation is an approach used to enhance transdermal transport of large molecules in which the skin is exposed to a series of electric pulses. Electroporation temporarily destabilizes the ...
Numerical Assessment of Thermal Response Associated With In Vivo Skin Electroporation: The Importance of the Composite Skin model
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Electroporation is an approach used to enhance transdermal transport of large molecules in which the skin is exposed to a series of electric pulses. The structure of the transport inhibiting ...
A New Acoustic Model for Valveless Pulsejets and Its Application to Optimization Thrust
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Due to its simplicity, the valveless pulsejet may be an ideal low cost propulsion system. In this paper, a new acoustic model is described, which can accurately predict the operating frequency ...
Forced Convection With Laminar Pulsating Counterflow in a Saturated Porous Channel
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: An analytical solution is obtained for forced convection in a parallel-plate channel occupied by a layered saturated porous medium with counterflow produced by pulsating pressure gradients. The ...
The Onset of Convection in a Porous Medium Occupying an Enclosure of Variable Width or Height
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: An analytical study is made of the onset of convection in a saturated porous medium occupying a two-dimensional enclosure of uniform height, but whose width is slowly varying in an arbitrary ...
The Onset of Convection in a Layer of Cellular Porous Material: Effect of Temperature-Dependent Conductivity Arising From Radiative Transfer
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The onset of convection in a horizontal layer of a cellular porous material heated from below is investigated. The problem is formulated as a combined conductive-convective-radiative problem in ...
Vertical Free Convective Boundary-Layer Flow in a Bidisperse Porous Medium
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this article, we study the effect of adopting a two-temperature and two-velocity model, appropriate to a bidisperse porous medium (BDPM), on the classical Cheng–Minkowycz study of vertical ...
