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.

Calculated Dynamic Response of an Articulated Tower in Waves—Comparison With Model Tests
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Calculated dynamic response of an articulated tower in waves is compared with model tests. The theory used is based on Morison’s equation and linear wave theory and requires specified hydrodynamic ...
Study on Dynamic Responses of a TLP in Waves
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The dynamic responses of a TLP (Tension Leg Platform) in regular and irregular waves were investigated by model tests and calculations in both frequency and time domain. Hydrodynamic forces in ...
Erratum: “Indentation and Penetration of Edge-Loaded Freshwater Ice Sheets in the Brittle Range” (Journal of Offshore Mechanics and Arctic Engineering, 1987, 109, pp. 287–294)

Predicting Incipient Jumps to Resonance of Compliant Marine Structures in an Evolving Sea-State
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: When monitoring the wave-driven motions of a compliant offshore facility, be it an articulated mooring tower or a vessel, the engineer would like to be able to predict, in real time, any ...
Wave Loads and Motions of Long Structures in Directional Seas
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The present paper deals with the effects of wave directionality on the loads and motions of long structures. A numerical procedure based on Green’s theorem is developed to compute the exciting ...
Transverse Vibrations of a Cylinder Very Close to a Plane Wall
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The paper presents a series of experiments carried out with a cylinder suspended by springs and placed very close to a plane wall. The cylinder is exposed to a steady current. The range of ...
On Wave Force Coefficient Variability
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Wave force coefficient variability for cylinders, from wave to wave in a train of periodic waves, has been shown to be dependent on the phase of the force record relative to the ambient ...
Analysis of Buckle Initiation in Damaged Subsea Pipelines
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A rigid, perfectly plastic mechanism analysis, embodying interactive uniaxial membrane and bending plasticity, is used to predict the form of localized impact damage for tubulars. An extension ...
Calculation of Stresses and Slip in Structural Layers of Unbonded Flexible Pipes
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper deals with the behavior of high-pressure unbonded flexible steel pipes which can be used as risers in offshore applications. It concerns primarily the behavior of the internal structure ...
Analytical Study of the Mechanical Strength of Flexible Pipes
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Although flexible pipes have already been in wide use in the offshore industry, studies on their mechanical strength are few and far between, and their industrial standards are yet to be ...
