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.

Topology Configuration of Actuator Failure Mode of a Novel Quadruped Robot
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Fault tolerance is an important characteristic of quadruped robots. Actuator failure mode is the basis for research of fault tolerance and motion planning of quadruped robots. In this paper, the combination of actuator ...
Spring Parameters Design for the New Hydraulic Actuated Quadruped Robot
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: More and more stateoftheart robots have employed hydraulic actuating systems. It has a high powertoweight ratio. Robots with these actuators can bear more payloads and achieve highly dynamic performance. However, the energy ...
Kinematic Acquisition of Geometric Constraints for Task Oriented Design of Planar Mechanisms
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A motion task can be given in various ways. It may be defined parametrically or discretely in terms of an ordered sequence of displacements or in geometric means. This paper studies a new type of motion analysis problem ...
Type Synthesis of a Family of Novel Four, Five, and Six Degrees of Freedom Sea Lion Ball Mechanisms With Three Limbs
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A family of novel mechanisms with three limbs called sea lion ball mechanisms (SLBMs) is investigated that looks like a sea lion playing with a ball. The SLBMtype mechanism is composed of an upper part and a lower part ...
A Line Geometric Approach to Kinematic Acquisition of Geometric Constraints of Planar Motion
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper examines the problem of geometric constraints acquisition of planar motion through a line-geometric approach. In previous work, we have investigated the problem of identifying point-geometric constraints associated ...
Design and Kinematic Analysis of a Novel Hybrid Kinematic Mechanism With Seven-Degrees-of-Freedom and Variable Topology for Operation in Space
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: We propose a novel hybrid robot with seven degrees-of-freedom (DOF) and variable topology for operation in space. Design specifications of the space robot are presented for the type synthesis of hybrid mechanisms. Based ...
A Computational Geometric Approach for Motion Generation of Spatial Linkages With Sphere and Plane Constraints
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper studies the problem of spatial linkage synthesis for motion generation from the perspective of extracting geometric constraints from a set of specified spatial displacements. In previous work, we have developed ...
Modeling and Verification for a Three-Degree-of-Freedom Flexure-Based Planar Parallel Micro Manipulator
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Micro positioning systems are popular devices to achieve ultrahigh precision motion. In this paper, a three-degree-of-freedom (3-DOF) flexure-based planar parallel micro manipulator is presented. The existing literature ...
Implementing the Analytical Reachable Body Workspace for Calculating the Obstacle-Crossing Ability of a Hexapod Robot
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Calculating the maximum obstacle-crossing ability accurately at the mechanism design stage can better ensure that the manufactured robot prototype meets the predefined indices. The obstacle-crossing task of the legged robot ...
Dynamics Modeling and Modal Space Control Strategy of Ship-Borne Stewart Platform for Wave Compensation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The ship-borne Stewart platform can compensate for the six-degrees-of-freedom (DOFs) motion generated by the ship, which improves the reliability and safety of offshore operations and increases the executable window period. ...
