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.

Microcontact Model for Paper-Based Wet Friction Materials
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper is focused on the real area of contact for paper-based wet friction materials during the engagement of wet clutches. The deformation of the wet friction material is identified as ...
Numerical Simulation of Engagement of a Wet Clutch With Skewed Surface Roughness
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The engagement of a wet clutch with skewed surface roughness was investigated. A Weibull asperity height distribution rather than a Gaussian one was utilized in the asperity contact pressure ...
Intersonic Crack Propagation—Part I: The Fundamental Solution
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Recent experiments of Rosakis et al. have clearly shown that the crack-tip velocity can exceed the shear wave speed for a crack tip propagating between two weakly bonded, identical and isotropic ...
Intersonic Crack Propagation—Part II: Suddenly Stopping Crack
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In Part I of this series, we have obtained the fundamental solution for a mode II intersonic crack which involves a crack moving uniformly at a velocity between the shear and longitudinal ...
Fracture Nucleation in Single-Wall Carbon Nanotubes Under Tension: A Continuum Analysis Incorporating Interatomic Potentials
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Carbon nanotubes show great promise for applications ranging from nanocomposites, nanoelectronic components, nanosensors, to nanoscale mechanical probes. These materials exhibit very attractive ...
Confined Capillary Stresses During the Initial Growth of Thin Films on Amorphous Substrates
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Changes in substrate curvature indicating the existence of compressive stress in isolated crystallites are commonly observed during the initial stages of thin film deposition of metals on glass ...
