CTAN update: asmejour
The asmejour class is a template to format preprints in the style of journal papers published by the American Society of Mechanical Engineers. This version introduces support for unicode-math, which is now loaded by default with lualatex. The required fonts are in TeX Live. Several legacy options and commands have been eliminated. More of the code has been converted to expl3 from latex2e. The following packages are no longer loaded by the class: titlesec, enumitem, ifthen, iftex, totcount, hologo (now in the .tex file), mathalfa (can load in .tex file if needed), as well as these packages that were formerly loaded only as fallbacks: hyperxmp, bookmark, and inputenc. The kvoptions package now loads only for backward compatibility. Full details are in the README file. The class is backward compatible to the October 2020 latex distribution; the class will not compile with older formats. This version is PDF/UA-2 compliant when: the [captionpatch] option is used; subcaptions are not used; figures are compliant; either the [nolists] option is called or \ref* is used in the optional argument of captions; and \DocumentMetadata is properly called. Such PDF files validate fully under the Arlington model and with demo.vera.org.

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.
