Global publisher John Wiley & Sons, Inc., and the American Society of
Mechanical Engineers (ASME), the premier society for mechanical
engineers, announced today an agreement to develop and publish a
co-branded imprint of mechanical engineering books.
Wiley and ASME expect to publish ten new titles per year, with potential
to expand this number in future years. New titles under the imprint,
which will carry both the Wiley and the ASME Press logos, will begin to
appear in early 2016. Upcoming titles include:
-
Introduction to Dynamics and Control in Mechanical Engineering
Systems by Cho Wing Solomon To, University of Nebraska-Lincoln,
USA;
-
Nonlinear Regression Modelling by Russ Rhinehart, Oklahoma
State University, USA; and
-
Fundamentals of Mechanical Vibrations by Liang-Wu Cai, Kansas
State University, USA.
“As a leading publisher of mechanical engineering content, we are
excited to partner with the ASME,” said Jon Walmsley, Senior Vice
President & Managing Director, Professional Publishing and Learning at
Wiley. “This is the start of what I hope will be a long and fruitful
relationship with the ASME as we work together to effectively meet the
information needs of mechanical engineers, and help them gain the skills
and knowledge they need to be successful throughout their careers.”
"We look forward to the opportunity to increase the global impact of
ASME Press publications through this collaboration with Wiley," said
Philip V. DiVietro, Managing Director, Publishing, ASME.
Wiley and the ASME have served the information needs of engineers
worldwide for over 135 years, and this collaboration will provide even
more effective informational solutions to the mechanical engineering
community.
