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 Set of Estimation and Decision Preference Experiments for Exploring Risk Assessment Biases in Engineering Students
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Engineering decisions that have the greatest effect on worker and public safety occur early in the design process. During these decisions, engineers rely on their experience and intuition to estimate the severity and ...
Discrete-Direct Model Calibration and Uncertainty Propagation Method Confirmed on Multi-Parameter Plasticity Model Calibrated to Sparse Random Field Data
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A discrete direct (DD) model calibration and uncertainty propagation approach is explained and demonstrated on a 4-parameter Johnson-Cook (J-C) strain-rate dependent material strength model for an aluminum alloy. The ...
Multi-Objective Optimization of Tree Trunk Axes in Glulam Beam Design Considering Fuzzy Probability-Based Random Fields
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Deterministic design and a priori parameters are used in traditional optimization approaches. The material characteristics of solid wood are not deterministic in reality. Hence, realistic optimization and simulation methods ...
Evidence Theory Representations for Properties Associated With Weak Link/Strong Link Systems, Part 2: Failure Time and Failure Temperature
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The use of evidence theory and associated cumulative plausibility functions (CPFs), cumulative belief functions (CBFs), cumulative distribution functions (CDFs), complementary cumulative plausibility functions (CCPFs), ...
Evidence Theory Representations for Properties Associated With Weak Link/Strong Link Systems, Part 1: Loss of Assured Safety
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The use of evidence theory in the analysis of loss of assured safety (LOAS) for weak link (WL)/strong link (SL) systems is introduced and illustrated. Article content includes (i) an introduction to evidence theory, (ii) ...
Reviewer's Recognition
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The Reviewers of the Year Award is given to reviewers who have made an outstanding contribution to the journal in terms of the quantity, quality, and turnaround time of reviews completed during the past 12 months. The prize ...
Pelvic Response of a Total Human Body Finite Element Model During Simulated Injurious Under Body Blast Impacts
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Military operations in Iraq and Afghanistan have resulted in the increased exposure of military personnel to explosive threats. Combat-related pelvic fractures are a relatively new battlefield injury that poses a serious ...
Evidence Theory Representations for Properties Associated With Weak Link/Strong Link Systems, Part 3: Margins for Failure Time and Failure Temperature
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The use of evidence theory and associated cumulative plausibility functions (CPFs), cumulative belief functions (CBFs), cumulative distribution functions (CDFs), complementary cumulative plausibility functions (CCPFs), ...
Reliability Analysis of Mechanical Systems Based on the First Four Moments of Input Parameters
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The performance of a mechanical or structural system can be improved through a proper selection of its design parameters such as the geometric dimensions, external actions (loads), and material characteristics. The computation ...
Resilience Assessment and Importance Measure for Interdependent Critical Infrastructures
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Based upon a novel control-based dynamic modeling framework, this paper proposes two new indicators, i.e., resilience by mitigation and resilience by recovery, for the resilience analysis of interdependent critical ...
