1/1/2005 - Peer reviewed journal articlesThis publication details a series of explosive detonation experiments conducted in NIOSH's Bruceton and Lake Lynn Experimental Mines to evaluate low-level (<6 psig) detonation wave propagation behavior in single- and multiple-entry configurations.
-
1/1/2005 - Peer reviewed journal articlesThis paper reports on a cooperative study on vibrating screen noise conducted at a coal preparation plant. Rubber isolators were found to reduce sound levels by 1 dB and amped side plates reduced vibration levels on the screen sides by 1 to 7 dB(A).
-
1/1/2004 - Peer reviewed journal articlesReports on a test system and computer program developed for using a three-axis ultrasonic anemometer to measure airflow in a simulated mine entry.
-
1/1/2002 - Peer reviewed journal articlesFull-scale laboratory tests provide information to longwall operators that would assist them in selecting control parameters to reduce dust levels for mine-specific conditions.
-
10/1/2000 - Peer reviewed journal articlesThis article reviews various dust control technologies developed over the years at the Pittsburgh Research Laboratory of the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) to provide various options and alternatives to lower bag machine o...

10/1/2000 - Peer reviewed journal articlesA report on technology to enhance safety during mine hoisting developed by NIOSH researchers.
-
5/1/2000 - Peer reviewed journal articlesAn experimental program was conducted to evaluate the accuracy of some current methods for predicting the flammability of gas mixtures containing hydrogen and flammable or nonflammable volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in air.
-
5/1/2000 - Peer reviewed journal articlesThis paper reports the results of flammability studies for methane, propane, hydrogen, and deuterium gases in air conducted by the Pittsburgh Research Laboratory.

12/1/1999 - Peer reviewed journal articlesAs underground stone mining expands to deeper cover and more efficient methods are used, effective stone pillar design methods become more important. In this paper, 72 stone mine pillar designs are examined for factors affecting stability.
-
4/1/1999 - Peer reviewed journal articlesAn evaluation of strategies for monitoring methane levels during roof bolting in an extended cut entry.
