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.

Elastohydrodynamic Film Collapse During Rapid Deceleration. Part I—Experimental Results
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper describes a study of the behavior of elastohydrodynamic lubricated contacts subjected to rapid halting. Experiments have been carried out using ultrathin interferometry coupled to a ...
Elastohydrodynamic Film Collapse During Rapid Deceleration. Part II—Theoretical Analysis and Comparison of Theory and Experiment
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents a theoretical model for the behavior of elastohydrodynamic films subjected to transient speed conditions, based on Grubin’s analytical solution for elastohydrodynamic lubrication. ...
Mechanism of Action of Colloidal Solid Dispersions
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In the past there has been considerable interest in the possibility of using liquid lubricants containing dispersed, solid particles in the 1–50 micron size range to reduce friction and wear. ...
Compression of a Single Transverse Ridge in a Circular Elastohydrodynamic Contact
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A detailed experimental study has been made of the behavior of a 100 nm high transversely oriented ridge in an elastohydrodynamic (EHD) contact. Ultra-thin film interferometry has been used to ...
Application of Atomic Force Microscopy to the Study of Lubricant Additive Films
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Constant force mode atomic force microscopy is used to examine the films formed on steel surfaces by three different types of lubricant additive. Work on molybdenum dithiocarbamate friction ...
Lubrication of Rough Surfaces by a Boundary Film-Forming Viscosity Modifier Additive
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In previous work it was shown that some functionalized polymers used as viscosity index improvers are able to form thick boundary lubricating films. This behavior results from adsorption of the ...
