2/1/2009 - Conference papersThis paper describes a recently completed cooperative research effort by NIOSH with Sy-Klone International and Vulcan Materials Company to evaluate the effectiveness of a newly designed uni-directional filtration and pressurization system that brings al...
-
2/1/2009 - Conference papersThis paper discusses some ways to find extra usable air when there is no extra ventilation capacity.
-
11/1/2008 - Conference papersThis paper discusses the changes that new legislation and regulations are making to the industry and current research that is producing technologies to make mining safer and will likely impact the future of mining in the U.S.
-
11/1/2008 - Conference papersThis work by NIOSH has modelled the impacts of borehole pattern and design and the effects of increasing face length on gob gas venthole performance.
-
10/1/2008 - Conference papersThis paper describes the performance of LED and incandescent sources in cap lamps in terms of correlated color temperature, color rendering, light output, electric power, ambient temperature and airflow, and light source aging.
-
10/1/2008 - Conference papersThis study presents a numerical investigation of geological discontinues in the coalbed using reservoir simulations of the effects of partings and permeability facies and lithotype changes on the production performances of vertical and horizontal degasi...
-
10/1/2008 - Conference papersThis paper describes research to control dominant noise sources in continuous miners. This work ranks noise radiated by different conveyor sections and determines the effect of a urethane-coated tail roller on the noise radiated by the tail section.
-
9/1/2008 - Conference papersThis paper presents an overview of dust controls typically utilized in underground U.S. coal mines and an update of ongoing NIOSH PRL research efforts that are evaluating new control technologies.
-
7/1/2008 - Conference papersThe centerpiece of this project is development of a Dynamic Failure Control Program to monitor evolution of dynamic failure hazards with changing geologic conditions to assure that control and protective measures are appropriately deployed.
-
7/1/2008 - Conference papersThis paper presents a pillar design methodology that was developed from a study of pillar performance in operating stone mines and concludes with guidelines for applying a developed equation and selecting appropriate input parameters.
