Summary of the
2nd Meeting of ISSMGE TC102
Held in
XVI ECSMGE Edinburgh - 15-9-2015, 18.30-20:30
The participants were Michele Jamiolkowski (Italy), Hakan Garin (Sweden), Lucia Simeoni (Italy), Joek Peuchen (Netherlands), Darren Ward (UK), Michael Premstaller (Austria), Erich Saurer (Austria), Sophie Messerklinger (Austria), Francesca Buselli (Italy), Luisa Dimitri (Albania), Zbigniew Bednarczyk (Poland), Zbigniew Mlynarek (Poland), Jedrzej Wierzbicki (Poland), John Powell (UK), Tom Lunne (Norway), Canan Emrem Kulac (Turkey), Emoke Imre (Hungary), Paul Mayne (USA) and António Viana da Fonseca (Portugal).
During this meeting, different points were discussed: news (recent past events and future collaborations of TC102 in near future events, new members, refreshing of TC102 website, new textbooks on In Situ Testing, Webinars; etc).
On the ISC’5 state-of-the-art and outcomings, the organizers informed that the number of submitted abstracts was increasing rapidly.
TC 102 proposal of James K. Mitchell Lecturer, Dr. John Powell, for Honour Lecture in 19ICSMGE, Seoul 2017, was also commented and the expected results was expected before the Pan-American CSMGE in Argentina.
The decision that James K. Mitchell Lecture of Site Characterization (TC102) has been selected as one of ISSMGE Honours Lectures at the 19th ICSMGE was then transmitted to TC102 chair by Prof. Dong-Soo Kim, president of the 19th International Conference on Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering Organizing Committee. We congratulate Dr. John Powell for having accepted this invitation which proved to be a good choice.
ISC’6 was also discussed and the possibility to change our conference to 2019 is on schedule.
Other subjects such as specialty symposia/conferences (S_s/c): CPT/ DMT / PMT, Geophysics and sub committees on specialty testing equipment/systems were addressed.
The chair informed that, following the ISP’7, 2015 Pressio Symposium, a new international committee on pressuremeter, whose task is to organize future symposia starting with the ISP-8, was created. One of the objectives is establish a database in coordination with the TC 102 and TC 211 of Pressuremeter users worldwide, to help in draft recommendations on the use of Pressuremeter, to support the upgrading of standards. TC102 chair will be invited to be member of the secretariat.
Finally a fruitful discussion to propose special publications to international editors from selected papers or from keynote lectures, conducted to a consensus that this should considered in the future. Both alternatives to direct this to special volumes/numbers on international journals or in speciality book series would motivate the authors to increase the quality of the articles and the visibility of our meetings.
The example of the special number on Site Characterization from In Situ Testing of Soils and Rocks International Journal (http://www.soilsandrocks.com.br/soils-androcks/SR37-3.pdf) was illustrated and the prospective special number of DMT’15 was also presented.
