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.

The Mechanism of Friction in Boundary Lubrication
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The primary friction mechanism between boundary-lubricated sliding surfaces was investigated. Experiments were performed on well-polished aluminum, copper, and chromium using mineral oil lubricant. ...
The Effects of Ion Implantation on Friction and Wear of Metals
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The effects of ion implantation on the friction and wear behavior of metals were investigated. Experiments were conducted with iron, titanium, and copper implanted with nitrogen ions, iron ...
Mathematical Foundations for Manufacturing
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: For the field of manufacturing to become a science, it is necessary to develop general mathematical descriptions for the analysis and synthesis of manufacturing systems. Standard analytic models, ...
The Role of Hard Layers in Lubricated and Dry Sliding
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Lubricated and dry experiments on titanium and steel surfaces with and without TiN sputtered coatings of various thicknesses have been conducted. The significance of the layer thickness, interfacial ...
Vortex Motions Induced by V-Grooved Rotating Cylinders and Their Effect on Mixing Performance
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A numerical study of the fluid flows generated in the annular space between a rotating V-grooved cylinder and a hollow cylindrical shell is presented. The numerical procedures used to obtain ...

The Coefficients of Thermal Expansion of La2O3, TaVO5 and Ta16W18O94 Below Room Temperature
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The coefficients of thermal expansion (CTE) of La2 O3 , TaVO5 and Ta16 W18 O94 were measured in the temperature range 150–300 K for space applications. Hot pressed La2 O3 showed a positive ...
Tool Wear by Solution: A Quantitative Understanding
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The mechanism controlling the crater wear of single phase carbide cutting tool materials in the high speed cutting of steel has been identified. A simple model has been developed to describe ...
The Coefficient of Thermal Expansion of a Super Invar-Ta16W18O94 Composite
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) of a hot pressed Ta16 W18 O94 which was produced from Ta2 O5 and WO3 powders was found to be −1.52×10−6 K−1 in the temperature range 180–330 ...
Chemical Smoothing of Rough Metal Surfaces
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A chemical etching method is investigated as a possible approach to smoothing metal surfaces automatically. In a chemical etching process metal is removed due to chemical reaction and the ...
