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.

Reaction Forces and Flexion–Extension Moments Imposed on Functional Spinal Units With Constrained and Unconstrained In Vitro Testing Systems
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A mechanical goal of in vitro testing systems is to minimize differences between applied and actual forces and moments experienced by spinal units. This study quantified the joint reaction forces and reaction flexion–extension ...
Strain Response in the Facet Joint Capsule During Physiological Joint Rotation and Translation Following a Simulated Impact Exposure: An In Vitro Porcine Model
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Low back pain (LBP) is frequently reported following rear impact collisions. Knowledge of how the facet joint capsule (FJC) mechanically behaves before and after rear impact collisions may help explain LBP development ...
