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.

RISApplication of a Reduced Order Model for Fuzzy Analysis of Linear Static Systems
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This contribution proposes a strategy for performing fuzzy analysis of linear static systems applying α-level optimization. In order to decrease numerical costs, full system analyses are replaced by a reduced order model ...
Possibilistic Uncertainty Quantification in One-Dimensional Consolidation Problems
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this study, we use possibility distribution as a basis for parameter uncertainty quantification in one-dimensional (1D) consolidation problems. A possibility distribution is the one-point coverage function of a random ...
Levelized Cost of Energy Assessment for Offshore Wind Farms—An Examination of Different Methodologies, Input Variables, and Uncertainty
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Levelized cost of energy (LCoE) is the most common metric used in renewable energy assessments. However, this can be a very complex calculation with numerous methodologies depending on the perspective taken. Inputs including ...
Harmonizing the Mooring System Reliability of Multiline Anchor Wind Farms
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: One of many barriers to the deployment of floating offshore wind turbines is the high cost of vessel time needed for soil investigations and anchor installation. A multiline anchor system is proposed in which multiple ...
Assessing Wear Evolutions in Railway Wheelsets Using a Survival Modeling Approach
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper provides a method to predict maintenance needs for the railway wheelsets by modeling the wear out affecting the wheelsets during its life cycle using survival analysis. Wear variations of wheel profiles are ...
A Framework for In-Service Life Extension of Hydroelectric Generation Assets
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The integrity assessment of aged or worn out large electromechanical equipment units, such as in hydroelectric generators, for possible life extension has been identified as a growing challenge in the electrical power ...
Assessment of Human Reliability Under the Conditions of Uncertainty: SPAR-H Methodology Interpreted in Terms of Interval-Valued Probabilities
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The well-known standardized plant analysis risk-human reliability (SPAR-H) methodology is widely used for analysis of human reliability in complex technological systems. It allows assessing the human error probability ...
Shell Buckling With Polymorphic Uncertain Surface Imperfections and Sensitivity Analysis
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In a probabilistic design approach for cylindrical shells, Gaussian random fields are used to simulate geometric imperfections. The shape of imperfections depends, among others, on the autocorrelation properties of the ...
Sensitivity Analysis of Epistemic Uncertainty on Input Parameters and System Structure Using Dempster-Shafer Theory
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this article, a method is proposed to conduct a global sensitivity analysis of epistemic uncertainty on both system input and system structure, which is very common in early stage of system development, using Dempster-Shafer ...
Guaranteed Minimization of the Bit Error Ratio for MIMO Systems: A Mathematical Viewpoint
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Multiplying the capacity of communication links by using the multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) mechanism has become an essential part of various wireless standards. In this paper, we focus on the bit error ratio (BER) ...
