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.

Mechanical Properties of Viscoelastic Media by Local Frequency Estimation of Divergence Free Wave Fields
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Magnetic resonance elastography (MRE) is an imaging modality with which mechanical properties can be noninvasively measured in living tissue. Magnetic resonance elastography relies on the fact that the elastic shear modulus ...
The Relationship of Three-Dimensional Human Skull Motion to Brain Tissue Deformation in Magnetic Resonance Elastography Studies
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In traumatic brain injury (TBI), membranes such as the dura mater, arachnoid mater, and pia mater play a vital role in transmitting motion from the skull to brain tissue. Magnetic resonance elastography (MRE) is an imaging ...
Multi-Excitation Magnetic Resonance Elastography of the Brain: Wave Propagation in Anisotropic White Matter
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Magnetic resonance elastography (MRE) has emerged as a sensitive imaging technique capable of providing a quantitative understanding of neural microstructural integrity. However, a reliable method for the quantification ...
Estimation of Anisotropic Material Properties of Soft Tissue by MRI of Ultrasound-Induced Shear Waves
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper describes a new method for estimating anisotropic mechanical properties of fibrous soft tissue by imaging shear waves induced by focused ultrasound (FUS) and analyzing their direction-dependent speeds. Fibrous ...
Shear Wave Propagation and Estimation of Material Parameters in a Nonlinear, Fibrous Material
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper describes the propagation of shear waves in a Holzapfel–Gasser–Ogden (HGO) material and investigates the potential of magnetic resonance elastography (MRE) for estimating parameters of the HGO material model ...
Effect of Direction and Frequency of Skull Motion on Mechanical Vulnerability of the Human Brain
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Strain energy and kinetic energy in the human brain were estimated by magnetic resonance elastography (MRE) during harmonic excitation of the head, and compared to characterize the effect of loading direction and frequency ...
