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.

Contractile Filament Stress in the Left Ventricle and its Relationship to Wall Stress
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A three-dimensional composite model of heart muscle is proposed, consisting of one-dimensional (uniaxial) active contractile filaments embedded in a passive elastic binder. Equations are developed ...
Estimation of Systemic Arterial Impedance in Man From Cardiac Catheterization Data
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A five-parameter transfer function has been used to characterize the input impedance of the human systemic circulation. Aortic pressure and flow measurements obtained at cardiac catheterization ...
Left Ventricular Function: Correlation With Deformation of the Myocardium
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The amount of local tissue deformation at the equatorial region of the left ventricle is quantitated by the ratio of the instantaneous cross-sectional area of a tissue element to the cross-sectional ...
