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.

Deformation Bounds for Bodies in a State of Creep
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Bounds on the energy dissipation and surface displacements are found for bodies undergoing nonlinear creep as a result of step loading. Elastic effects are included in a simple manner, and it ...
Approximate Solutions for Impulsively Loaded Elastic-Plastic Beams
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A unified method of approximating the response of rigid-plastic and elastic, perfectly plastic beams subjected to impulsive loading is described. The method is based on the uniqueness proof for ...
A Complementary Work Bounding Principle for Forward Integration Along the Path of Loading for Elasto-Plastic Bodies
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The paper presents an extension of the complementary work bounding principle of Hodge (1966) for integration along the path of loading for a statically loaded elastic-plastic body. Using an ...
Work Bounding Functions for Plastic Materials
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The minimum work and maximum complementary work potentials for both time-independent and time-dependent plasticity are reconsidered from the viewpoint of internal variable theories. It is shown ...
A Note on the Uniqueness of Solutions for Dynamically Loaded Rigid-Plastic and Rigid-Viscoplastic Continua
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
A Note on the Determination of an Upper Bound on Displacement Rates for Steady Creep Problems
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A method is described whereby the displacement rate at any point on the surface of a body undergoing steady creep may be bounded from above. The method is restricted to n-power stress-strain ...
A Displacement Bound Principle for Inelastic Continua Subjected to Certain Classes of Dynamic Loading
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The paper presents an inequality relating statically admissible stress fields and kinematically admissible displacement fields for continua composed of inelastic materials which obey a postulated ...
Internal Variable Formulations of Problems in Elastoplasticity: Constitutive and Algorithmic Aspects
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This work surveys a broad range of related issues in quasistatic elastoplasticity, beginning with a development of an internal variable constitutive theory. The initial-boundary value problem is ...
