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.

Computer Simulation of Occupant Neck Response to Airbag Deployment in Frontal Impacts
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A mathematical simulation was performed to study the potential of head and neck injury to an unbelted driver restrained by an airbag. The baseline study represented a 50th percentile male dummy ...
A Dynamic Finite Element Analysis of Impulsive Loading of the Extension-Splinted Rabbit Knee
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A dynamic nonlinear finite element model was developed to study juxtarticular stresses in the splinted rabbit knee, an established laboratory model for creating osteoarthrosis due to impulsive ...
Differentiation of Human Motion Data Using Combined Spline and Least Squares Concepts
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A differentiation method, which combines the concepts of least squares and splines, has been developed to analyze human motion data. This data smoothing technique is not dependent on a choice ...
The Relationship Between Loading Conditions and Fracture Patterns of the Proximal Femur
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In an attempt to test the hypothesis of spontaneous hip fracture, seven pairs of femurs, with ages ranging from 59 to 90, were tested under two loading conditions designed to simulate muscular ...
Experiences on Startup and Trial Operation at Yards Creek Pumped Storage Project
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Many problems were encountered during the startup and trial operation at Yards Creek. This paper describes the major problems and how they were resolved. There are many questions about pump-turbine ...
