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.

Discussion: “Instantaneous Properties of Trajectories Generated by Planar, Spherical, and Spatial Rigid Body Motions” (McCarthy, J. M., and Roth, B., 1982, ASME J. Mech. Des., 104, pp. 39–50)

Coefficient of Restitution Interpreted as Damping in Vibroimpact
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: During impact the relative motion of two bodies is often taken to be simply represented as half of a damped sine wave, according to the Kelvin-Voigt model. This is shown to be logically ...
A Classification of Coupler-Line Envelopes from Hinged Four-Bar Linkages
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The loci of straight lines (attached to moving links in mechanisms) call for further study, because translation along a line can be identified with the movement at a sliding pair. The paths ...
Equations for Four-Bar Line-Envelopes
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A line-equation (in tangential coordinates) is derived for the envelope of a general straight line attached to the coupler of a planar hinged four-bar linkage. Since a line can be identified ...
Some Properties of Mechanically-Traceable Algebraic Loci
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A number of theorems interrelating certain properties of the algebraic loci traced by some mechanisms are presented. The properties discussed are the algebraic-geometric concepts of order, class, ...
Approximate Straight-Line Motion From Simple Spatial Mechanisms
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A simple form of spin-surface is investigated and it is shown how, via this surface, spatial mechanisms may readily be synthesized to give twelve-point straight line motion or twelve-point ...
Mechanical Couplings—A General Geometrical Theory, Part 1: Theorems on Algebraic Loci and Couplings
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In the broad category of couplings considered the two coupled bodies have either one or two relative degrees of freedom. Points, planes, and lines guided by such couplings trace a variety of ...
Mechanical Couplings—A General Geometrical Theory, Part 2: Examples and Applications of the Theorems
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Having established “feather” as an invariant property of algebraic couplings with connectivity 1, and of some with 2, many examples of its use are now given, in both planar and spatial motion, ...
Discussion: “Symmetric Overconstrained Linkages” (Waldron, K. J., 1969, ASME J. Eng. Ind., 91, pp. 158–162)
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Gross Motion Attributes of Certain Spatial Mechanisms
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A new method is presented by which positions of peculiar kinematic interest, such as ends of travel, locking positions and points of “uncertainty,” in certain types of spatial mechanisms can ...
