معرفی کتاب The ISRM Suggested Methods for Rock Characterization, Testing and Monitoring: 2007–2014

The International Society for Rock Mechanics (ISRM) is continuing to grow year by year. At the time of writing in early 2014, the Society has more than 7,000 individual members from 54 countries, together with close to 150 corporate members. Moreover, there has been a continuously increasing ISRM membership over the last 10 years. Commensurate with these statistics, there has been a corresponding increase in the Society’s activities—not least of which has been the work of the Testing Methods Commission which produces the ISRM Suggested Methods. These documents provide guidance to readers on characterisation, testing and monitoring for a wide range of rock mechanics and rock engineering applications.
The ISRM Testing Methods Commission is led by Prof. Resat Ulusay. In order to produce each Suggested Method, a Working Group is established with its own Chairman and Members who have expertise in the particular subject being considered. The draft Suggested Method thus generated is then subjected to rigorous review, a process which includes the ISRM Board members. The Suggested Method is then published as an individual item: in earlier years, this was in the International Journal of Rock Mechanics and Mining Sciences; and, more recently, in the Rock Mechanics and Rock Engineering Journal.
In order to provide access to all the Suggested Methods in one volume, the ISRM Blue Book was published in 2007 (by the ISRM via the Turkish National Group) and contains the complete set of Suggested Methods from 1974 to 2006 inclusive. Since that time, and as a result of the enthusiasm and dedicated work of Prof. Ulusay and his colleagues, many more Suggested Methods have been generated—leading to this Orange Book, published by Springer Science, which contains the ISRM Suggested Methods generated from 2007 to 2014, as well as some related articles.
It is with great pleasure and with gratitude to the industrious and pertinacious Prof. Ulusay, together with everyone who has been involved in the production of the Suggested Methods, that we introduce this ISRM Orange Book. We know that the contents will be of great assistance to the rock mechanics and rock engineering community. Thus, we hope that this Orange Book volume will be as successful as its Blue Book predecessor.
