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.

Synergy of Resistance Reduction Effects for a Ship With Bottom Air Cavity
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Friction on a surface covered by an air cavity is much less than friction in water but there is a resistance penalty caused by the cavity tail oscillations. Nevertheless, there is a method ...
Creation and Maintenance of Cavities Under Horizontal Surfaces in Steady and Gust Flows
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: An experimental study of air supply to bottom cavities stabilized within a recess under a horizontal surface has been carried out in a specially designed water tunnel. The air supply necessary ...
