asmejour: A template for ASME journal papers
Version 1.23 dated 2024/07/24.
Overview
This class provides a template to format preprints in the style of journal papers published by the American Society of Mechanical Engineers. The layout and reference formats follow the style of published papers in 2023.
This work is not a publication of ASME.
Files in this distribution are:
asmejour.cls -- the class file asmejour.bst -- bibtex style for ASME journal references asmejour-template.tex -- a latex template/example for this class asmejour-template.pdf -- documentation/sample paper asmejour-sample.bib -- a sample bibliography file * sample-figure-1.pdf, sample-figure-2a.pdf, sample-figure-2b.pdf -- figures for the example template /asmewide_example -- directory includes asmewide.sty and examples of wide equations
The .tex and .cls files are commented and should be self-explanatory.
This template was designed to approach the following aims:
- closely approximate ASME's fonts and layout, including author/title/abstract design
- match ASME's current reference formats, including hyperlinked DOI and URL (replaces asmems4.bst)
- support hyperlinks to figures, tables, equations, references, and external URLs
- support pdf bookmarks and metadata
- provide line numbers for editing and review
- support balancing of columns on last page
- support PDF/A (archival) standards if desired
- support copyright notices for federal employees and contractors
- support bold-face math and citations in section headings and captions
- enable various math and text features with newtxmath, newtxtext, and inconsolata packages
- enable passages in other languages, e.g., for a translation of the abstract or a quotation

Change log
v1.23 (2024/07/24)
- Add class option for single-column formatting, [singlecolumn], as sometimes requested for review (thanks Lennart Hultgren)

- Adjust loading order of hyperxmp and hyperref to accommodate v5.12 of hyperxmp package
- Change code that italicizes letters in subequation numbers to avoid conflict with hyperref
- Adjust font loading under luaLaTeX, now requiring that TeX Gyre Termes, TeX Gyre Heros, and Inconsolatazi4 are installed as system fonts
- Enable line numbers in abstract
- Revise code handling footnotes (now protected); revise code handling most package options; remove some legacy code.
- Minor correction to asmejour.bst for \hrefurl when used separately from asmejour.cls

- Include patch for bug in hyperxmp.
- Italicize letters in subequation numbers, to match ASME style.

v1.19 (2022/06/26)
- Correct typo in asmejour.cls (line 359): \protec should be \protect
- Force T1 encoding of qhvc font under LuaLaTeX (for title and author blocks)
- Update code for Inconsolata and Helvetica fonts under LuaLaTeX to ensure T1 encoding. Adjust scale factors.
- Scale Helvetica font to 0.91, to better match roman font.

v1.18 (2022/01/10)
- Introduce asmewide.sty, an experimental package for setting page-width equations in a two column format. A document with examples of use is included.
v1.17 (2021/12/26):
- Add code to warn about obsolete LaTeX installations. TeX Live 2020 or later is recommended for the asmejour package.
v1.16 (2021/12/23):
- suppress warnings about unused options when calling mathalfa and/or barcolor
- eliminate use of \entry{} with a single argument to produce subheadings in nomenclature; use \EntryHeading{} instead. (not backward compatible)

v1.13 (2020/08/10): Add support for PDF/A archival standards (1b, 2b, 2u, 3b, 3u), as the newtx fonts have recently gained complete unicode maps; also, restore varl and varqu as default options of the inconsolata font.

asmejour – A template for ASME journal papers
The asmejour class provides a template to format preprints submitted to ASME journals. The layout and reference formats closely follow the style that is currently being used for published papers.
The class is intended to be used with the asmejour.bst BibTeX style, which is part of this distribution. Unlike older ASME LaTeX templates, asmejour pdfs will contain hyperlinks, bookmarks, and metadata, and references can include the DOI and URL fields. Options include line numbering, final column balancing, various math options, government copyright, and archivability (PDF/A). The class is compatible with pdfLaTeX or LuaLaTeX.
This package is not a publication of ASME.
