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.

A Family of Rotational Parallel Manipulators With Equal Diameter Spherical Pure Rotation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this work, a family of two degrees of freedom (2DOF) rotational parallel manipulators (RPMs) with an equaldiameter spherical pure rotation (ESPR) is presented and discussed systematically. The theoretical models of both ...
Reconfiguration Analysis of a Two Degrees of Freedom 3 4R Parallel Manipulator With Planar Base and Platform1
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper deals with a 2DOF (degreesoffreedom) 34R parallel manipulator (PM) with planar base and platform—a novel PM with multiple operation modes (or disassembly free reconfigurable PM) that can use the minimum number ...
A Comparative Study on Motion Characteristics of Three Two Degree of Freedom Pointing Mechanisms
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Twodegreeoffreedom (2DOF) pointing mechanisms have been widely used in areas such as stabilized platforms, tracking devices, etc. Besides the commonly used serial gimbal structures, another two types of parallel pointing ...
Type Synthesis of Two Degrees of Freedom 3 4R Parallel Mechanisms With Both Spherical Translation Mode and Sphere on Sphere Rolling Mode
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Parallel manipulators (PMs) with multiple operation modes are novel reconfigurable PMs, which use less number of actuators and can be reconfigured without disassembly. This paper deals with the type synthesis of 2DOF ...
Design and Experimental Testing of an Improved Large Range Decoupled XY Compliant Parallel Micromanipulator1
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: There is an increasing need for XY compliant parallel micromanipulators (CPMs) providing good performance characteristics such as large motion range, wellconstrained crossaxis coupling, and parasitic rotation. Decoupled ...
Identification and Comparison for Continuous Motion Characteristics of Three Two-Degree-of-Freedom Pointing Mechanisms
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Two-degree-of-freedom (2DOF) pointing mechanisms, including the gimbal structure, the 1-RR&2-RRR spherical parallel mechanism (SPM), and the Omni-Wrist III, are increasingly applied in tracking devices, mechanical ...
Deterministic Design for a Compliant Parallel Universal Joint With Constant Rotational Stiffness
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Compliant universal joints have been widely employed in high-precision fields due to plenty of good performance. However, the stiffness characteristics, as the most important consideration for compliant mechanisms, are ...
A Family of Novel Compliant Linear-Motion Mechanisms Based on Compliant Rolling-Contact Element Pivot
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Compliant linear-motion mechanisms are of great use in precision machines due to their excellent performances such as infinite resolution and low cost. The accuracy of the mechanisms is an important consideration for ...
