10/1/2007 - Peer reviewed journal articlesThe primary goal of this study was to investigate the formation of combustion-generated particles derived from lubrication oil in the absence of fuel-produced soot.
-
8/1/2007 - Peer reviewed journal articlesThis paper describes a simple, inexpensive, dependable, and field portable method for estimating the mass concentration of elemental carbon exiting the tailpipe of a diesel engine using a direct reading photometer in underground mines.
-
12/1/2006 - Peer reviewed journal articlesThis paper analyzes narrative text fields accompanying injury reports associated with continuous miners, shuttle cars, load-haul-dump vehicles, and personnel transport equipment types in New South Wales underground coal mines.

11/1/2006 - Conference papersResearchers performed laboratory studies on four passive and two semi-active seat suspension designs. These six seat suspension systems were tested and analyzed, for vertical vibration only, using the ISO 5007 Standard.
-
11/1/2006 - Information CircularsNIOSH researchers conducted a study to gather additional data to support earlier findings that NIOSH seats, with unique viscoelastic foam padding, are improved designs for coal mine shuttle cars.
-
6/1/2006 - Conference papersThe ambient diesel particulate matter (DPM) concentrations (at the intakes and exhausts of the mine) was evaluated as an entire vehicle fleet of a stone mine switched from using 35% biodiesel to a water-emulsified fuel (PuriNOx).
-
6/1/2006 - NIOSH/USBM numbered publicationsThis study compared NIOSH and existing seat designs on low- and mid-coal seam shuttle cars.
-
2/1/2005 - Conference papersThis analysis will indicate safe following distances for haul trucks and other heavy equipment to avoid overexposure to respirable dust from the lead haul truck.
-
12/1/2004 - Peer reviewed journal articlesTwo field surveys were recently conducted to quantify fugitive dust generation and dispersion from truck traffic on unpaved and untreated mine haulage roads.
-
10/1/2004 - Conference papersDescribes a method for assessing equipment jolting using a combination of "black boxes" called Shox Boxes and an onboard GPS system. The resulting configuration provides an objective assessment of jolting and a chance to determine its root causes.
