10/22/2016 - Research projectsA project to update the database of case histories upon which the Analysis of Longwall Pillar Stability (ALPS) software bases its recommended stability factors.
-
7/18/2016 - Contracts and cooperative agreementsA contract to extend communication and hazard monitoring into bleeders or other remote workings in an active underground coal mine.
-
2/1/2010 - Conference papersThis paper discusses the role of ventilation modeling in evaluating primary escapeway pressurization in a three-entry development system to improve emergency escape in a coal mine using belt air.
-
2/1/2009 - Conference papersThis paper discusses the current ventilation practices regarding the use of belt air during gateroad development and longwall panel extraction.
-
1/1/2009 - Conference papersThis paper introduces two position adjustment methods for mine tracking systems which use a coplanar node-path network mine model as the foundation for their development.
-
1/1/2009 - Peer reviewed journal articlesThis paper discusses air quality concerns and methods to improve the ventilation of large-opening mines whose entries are at least 93m2 (1,000 ft2).
-
9/1/2007 - Conference papersResearchers with NIOSH studied the electrical equipment ignition sources for the Brookwood and other disasters to develop recommendations for preventing similar disasters.
-
1/1/2006 - Peer reviewed journal articlesResults of diesel fuel fire experiments were conducted to determine the critical air velocity for preventing smoke rollback. Experimental results compared well with model predictions based on a computational fluid dynamics fire dynamics simulator.
-
8/1/2005 - Conference papersThe conclusion drawn from this study was that standing supports do not have sufficient capacity to control main roof or floor loading or prevent the resulting convergence of the tailgate entry.
-
2/1/2005 - Conference papersDiesel fuel fire experiments were conducted to determine the critical air velocity for preventing smoke rollback. Experimental results compared very well with model predictions based upon a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) fire dynamics simulator.
