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.

Free Convection From a Vertical Plate With Nonuniform Surface Temperature and Embedded in a Porous Medium
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A procedure is described for the calculation of heat transfer due to free convection flow along a vertical plate embedded in a porous medium with an arbitrarily varying surface temperature. ...
Operating Experience With a Fluidized Bed Test Combustor
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents operating experience with a fluidized bed combustor burning various coals. The primary focus is on the effect of relevant coal properties on combustor performance. Tests were ...
The Performance of Fabric Filters in a Pilot Baghouse During Coal Water Fuel Combustion Trials
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Energy, Mines and Resources, Canada, together with the New Brunswick Electric Power Commission (N.B. Power) and Cape Breton Development Corporation have undertaken a program in eastern Canada to ...
An Evaluation Method for Peak/Off-Peak Price Functions in Energy Storage Technologies
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A method of evaluation for peak/off-peak price functions in energy storage technologies is presented. The method is particularly useful in statical optimization of the fundamental parameters ...
On the Vortex-Induced Oscillation of Long Structural Elements
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Previous solutions to the vortex-induced vibration of structures have been primarily based on modal analysis, using a one or two-mode approximation. Such an analysis is generally meaningful only ...
Dynamic Behavior of Submarine Pipelines Under Laying Operation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Theoretical and experimental study on dynamic behavior of submarine pipelines under laying operation with articulated stingers is described in this paper. Wave response tests in regular waves and ...
Optimization of Stinger Geometry for Deepsea Pipelaying
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The configuration of the stinger and ramps of a laying barge can be adjusted by varying the angles between adjacent segments and the arm of each support. On the basis of suitable idealizations ...
Hydrodynamic Loads on Flexible Marine Structures due to Vortex Shedding
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper makes a comparison of experimental measurements and a recently developed methodology for the prediction of the increase in the steady drag of a cylinder undergoing vortex-induced ...
Examination of Commercial Casing Collapse Strength Under Axial Loading
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Collapse testing of commercial API grade 7-in. casing was conducted under combined external pressure and axial load. The measured collapse pressure was considerably higher than the API minimum ...
Swivels for Production Risers and Offshore Terminals
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Properly designed and developed swivels represent a reliable and practical means for providing required flowline flexibility in multiline marine production risers. The lack of suitable commercially ...
