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.

On the Changing Order of Singularity at a Crack Tip
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The nature of the transition in the crack tip stress singularity from an inverse square root to an inverse fractional power as a crack tip reaches a phase boundary or a geometrical discontinuity ...
On the Governing Equation for Quasi-Static Crack Growth in Linearly Viscoelastic Materials
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: An equation governing the initiation and growth of quasi-static fracture in a linearly viscoelastic material is derived using the thermodynamic power balance as a fracture criterion. It is found ...
