1/1/2016 - Peer reviewed journal articlesA study looking at how a dust assessment technology, the Helmet-CAM, was used to identify and encourage communication about potential problem areas and tasks on site that contributed to elevated exposures.
-
11/20/2015 - Contracts and cooperative agreementsA contract to develop and test an enhanced magnetics-based communications waveform with increased ability to provide communications in the presence of ambient noise and interference in order to extend existing magnetics-based technologies.
-
9/1/2015 - Non-peer reviewed journal articlesThis trade publication piece by NIOSH discusses testing of the Helmet-CAM system. NIOSH partnered with Vulcan Materials Co. to test and evaluate the setup for noise assessment at the company's mining operation near Baltimore.

10/6/2014 - Contracts and cooperative agreementsA contract to evaluate a fiber optic sprinkler head emergency communications system to determine if this concept can meet the communication, tracking, mine escape, and rescue requirements of an underground communication system.
-
10/1/2014 - Peer reviewed journal articlesAn analyis of TTE measurement data collected from 94 mines in order to determine the apparent conductivity of the overburden based on three different models: a homogenous half-space model, a thin sheet model, and an attenuation factor or Q-factor model.
-
9/1/2014 - Peer reviewed journal articlesAn article about an analysis of interviews with nine mine safety trainers using a social ecological model to examine factors that could be addressed both during and after mine safety training.
-
8/15/2014 - Contracts and cooperative agreementsA contract to determine the factors that most affect signal transmission and reception for through-the-earth communication systems.
-
8/14/2014 - Contracts and cooperative agreementsA contract to incorporate a wireless base station into the MagneLink Magnetic Communication System (MCS) and to develop a mechanism that automatically activates a portable wireless text messaging device when a refuge chamber is opened or deployed.
