10/22/2016 - Research projectsA project to define the geologic and stress criteria associated with an elevated risk of coal bursts, considering both U.S. and international experience through visits to coalfields.
-
10/22/2016 - Research projectsA project to reduce float dust deposition in return and belt airways of underground coal longwall mines through laboratory and field evaluation of novel dust prevention, capture, and suppression methods and dissemination of related findings.
-
10/22/2016 - Research projectsA project to evaluate the feasibility of using Light Detection And Ranging (LIDAR), a remote sensing technology based on laser reflection, as a dust monitoring tool in the mining industry.
-
10/22/2016 - Research projectsA project to improve the effectiveness of hearing loss prevention interventions through development, refinement, promotion, and long-term evaluation.
-
10/22/2016 - Research projectsA project to test an intervention to help miners use personal dust monitor feedback more effectively to reduce their exposure to respirable coal mine dust.
-
10/22/2016 - Research projectsA project to develop durable noise controls that reduce the noise exposure of longwall mining system crews and facilitate the commercialization of the controls to make them available for all miners.
-
10/22/2016 - Research projectsA project to develop, evaluate, and implement engineering controls to reduce noise over-exposures among haul truck and LHD operators.
-
10/22/2016 - Research projectsA project to develop engineering data to improve knowledge of mine fires and their interactions with mine ventilation networks; atmospheric monitoring systems; and fire, prevention, detection, and suppression systems.
-
10/22/2016 - Research projectsA project to update the database of case histories upon which the Analysis of Longwall Pillar Stability (ALPS) software bases its recommended stability factors.
-
10/22/2016 - Research projectsA project to develop an economics program to determine the economic consequences of occupational fatal and non-fatal injury and use that information to improve program planning, intervention evaluation, and policy analysis.
