9/1/2009 - Conference papersThis paper discusses changes that new legislation and regulations are making to the U.S. coal mining industry, and current research that is producing technologies to make mining safer.
-
2/1/2009 - Conference papersNIOSH has initiated a seals research program with collaborators from Safety in Mines Testing and Research Station (SIMTARS) in Australia, West Virginia University (WVU), the Naval Research Laboratory (NRL), and U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE).

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 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.
-
7/1/2008 - Conference papersThis paper reviews 11 prevention control techniques for coal mine bursts.
-
6/1/2008 - Conference papersThis paper summarizes the modeling efforts conducted by NIOSH in the U.S. and CSIRO in Australia to address various gas management issues encountered in longwall mines using the application of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and numerical reservoir m...
