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.

An Analytical Study of Cryosurgery in the Lung
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The process of freezing in healthy lung tissue and in tumors in the lung during cryosurgery was modeled using one-dimensional close form techniques and finite difference techniques to determine ...
The Effect of Dimethylsulfoxide on the Water Transport Response of Rat Hepatocytes During Freezing
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Successful improvement of cryopreservation protocols for cells in suspension requires knowledge of how such cells respond to the biophysical stresses of freezing (intracellular ice formation, water ...
Measurement of Water Transport During Freezing in Mammalian Liver Tissue: Part II—The Use of Differential Scanning Calorimetry
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: There is currently a need for experimental techniques to assay the biophysical response (water transport or intracellular ice formation, IIF) during freezing in the cells of whole tissue slices. ...
Measurement and Simulation of Water Transport During Freezing in Mammalian Liver Tissue
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Optimization of cryosurgical procedures on deep tissues such as liver requires an increased understanding of the fundamental mechanisms of ice formation and water transport in tissues during ...
