7/1/2008 - Conference papersThis study examines the use of a commercially-available lubricant for hearing aids to determine whether it would facilitate improved fit and attenuation for earplugs.
-
1/1/2005 - Peer reviewed journal articlesThis study's objective was to simulate the postures and loads experienced by the lumbar spine during repetitive lifting of weights in different torso flexion postures, and to analyze the fatigue failure response of lumbosacral motion segments.

1/1/1992 - Information CircularsA U.S. Bureau of Mines study on the potential availability of copper from 204 mines and deposits in market economy countries.
-
1/1/1972 - Reports of InvestigationsMethane-flow and pressure data taken from a mine in the Pocahontas No. 3 Coalbed are compared with flow rates from lump coal obtained in laboratory experiments. From this, it is concluded that the main source of gas is the intact coalbed rather than a "...

1/1/1972 - Reports of InvestigationsA degasification experiment was conducted in a Pocahontas No. 3 Coalbed mine in Virginia. It involved (1) drilling holes in the coalbed in the outside headings of a set of five being developed in virgin area and (2) conducting a methane emission rate st...
-
1/1/1972 - Reports of InvestigationsThe method of moving averages was found useful in assessing the nature of methane emission in coal mines. Emission rates were influenced markedly by the presence of abandoned oil and gas wells in the vicinity of the mine. Such wells appeared to increase...
-
1/1/1971 - Reports of InvestigationsThe purpose of this study was to determine the characteristics of methane emissions during coal extraction by a longwall mining system. The study was conducted over 22 consecutive shifts. The average methane emission rate from the Lower Kittanning coalb...
-
8/1/1970 - Technical Progress ReportsMethane emission rates were studied in a Pittsburgh coalbed mine in northern West Virginia. Air volumes and methane percentages were recorded, and time studies of the miner were made during five consecutive operating days, during which a complete cycle...
