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.

Application of Nontransfer Type Plasma Heating Technology for Core-Material-Relocation Tests in Boiling Water Reactor Severe Accident Conditions
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A new experimental program using nontransfer (NTR) type plasma heating is under consideration in Japan Atomic Energy Agency (JAEA) to clarify the uncertainty on core-material relocation (CMR) behavior of boiling water ...
Development of Experimental Technology for Simulated Fuel-Assembly Heating to Address Core-Material-Relocation Behavior During Severe Accident
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The authors are developing an experimental technology for simulating severe accident (SA) conditions using simulant fuel material (ZrO2) that would contribute, not only to Fukushima Daiichi (1 F) decommissioning, but also ...
