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.

Local and Global Bifurcation Analyses of a Spatial Cable Elastica
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper focuses on a boundary value problem governing the equilibrium of a slender cable subject to thrust, torsion, and gravity. In the absence of field (gravity) loading, this boundary ...
Nonlinear Model Based Estimation of Rigid-Body Motion Via an Indirect Measurement of an Elastic Appendage
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this paper, we develop and implement a nonlinear model based procedure for the estimation of rigid-body motion via an indirect measurement of an elastic appendage. We demonstrate the procedure ...
Dynamics of a Rotating System With a Nonlinear Eddy-Current Damper
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: We investigate the nonlinear dynamics and stability of a rotating system with an electromagnetic noncontact eddy-current damper. The damper is modeled by a thin nonmagnetic disk that is translating ...
Nonlinear Dynamics and Internal Resonances of a Ship With a Rectangular Cross-Section in Head Seas
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Finite amplitude dynamics of ships in head seas due to parametric instabilities is a subject of renewed interest with an increasing demand of operation in severe and variable environmental ...
Bifurcations of a Nonlinear Small-Body Ocean-Mooring System Excited by Finite-Amplitude Waves
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: We investigate the response of a nonlinear small-body ocean-mooring system excited by finite-amplitude waves. The system is characterized by a coupled geometrically nonlinear restoring force defined ...
Application of a Hilbert Transform-Based Algorithm for Parameter Estimation of a Nonlinear Ocean System Roll Model
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: We combine an averaging procedure with a Hilbert transform-based algorithm for parameter estimation of a nonlinear ocean system roll model. System backbone curves obtained from data are compared ...
Parameter Identification of Nonlinear Ocean Mooring Systems Using the Hilbert Transform
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: We introduce and demonstrate the applicability of a parameter identification algorithm based on the Hilbert transform to nonlinear ocean mooring systems. The mooring dynamical system consists of ...
