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.

Negative Stiffness Building Blocks for Statically Balanced Compliant Mechanisms: Design and Testing
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In some applications, nonconstant energy storage in the flexible segments of compliant mechanisms is undesired, particularly when high efficiency or high-fidelity force feedback is required. In ...
An Intrinsic Geometric Framework for the Building Block Synthesis of Single Point Compliant Mechanisms
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this paper, we implement a characterization based on eigentwists and eigenwrenches for the synthesis of a compliant mechanism at a given point. For 2D mechanisms, this involves characterizing ...
Toward the Design of a Decoupled, Two-Dimensional, Vision-Based μN Force Sensor
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this paper, we present three designs for a decoupled, two-dimensional, vision-based micro-Newton (μN) force sensor for microrobotic applications. There are currently no reliable, multi-axis, ...
Curve Decomposition for Large Deflection Analysis of Fixed-Guided Beams With Application to Statically Balanced Compliant Mechanisms
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Statically balanced compliant mechanisms require no holding force throughout their range of motion while maintaining the advantages of compliant mechanisms. In this paper, a postbuckled fixed-guided ...
Design Strategies for the Topology Synthesis of Dual Input-Single Output Compliant Mechanisms
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this paper, design strategies are presented for the topology synthesis of dual input-single output compliant mechanisms. Decomposition methods are proposed to yield tractable subproblems to ...
