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 Evaluation of Hydroxyapatite Nanocomposites Using Finite Element Modeling
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Hydroxyapatite (HA) has been proposed as a candidate material for bone implants because of its similarity to the inorganic phase in bone. However, due to its lower mechanical properties compared to bone, it has not been ...
Interaction of Microcracks and Tissue Compositional Heterogeneity in Determining Fracture Resistance of Human Cortical Bone
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Recent studies demonstrated an association between atypical femoral fracture (AFF) and long-term bisphosphonate (BP) use for osteoporosis treatment. Due to BP treatment, bone undergoes alterations including increased ...
Evaluating the Role of Canalicular Morphology and Perilacunar Region Properties on Local Mechanical Environment of Lacunar–Canalicular Network Using Finite Element Modeling
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Physiological and pathological processes such as aging, diseases, treatments, and lactation can alter lacunar–canalicular network (LCN) morphology and perilacunar region properties. These modifications can impact the ...
