4/1/2008 - Conference papersThrough modeling, this paper analyzes the performance of vehicle operators when subjected to vibration from rough road conditions, and quanttifies the energy transmission in the presence of specialized seat padding and active suspension.
-
3/1/2008 - Conference papersSome surprising results were revealed in this study designed and implemented by NIOSH to evaluate the effectiveness of pre-driven longwall recovery rooms supported with pumpable concrete roof supports.
-
3/1/2008 - Conference papersThis paper describes a modeling approach that can be used as a tool to evaluate potential roof failure and optimize the stability of room and pillar layouts.
-
2/1/2008 - Conference papersThis NIOSH study presents an approach for prediction of methane inflow rates using coalbed methane reservoir modeling which can be used to limit the methane concentrations occurring as a result of the influences of various coalbed and operational parame...
-
2/1/2008 - Conference papersThis paper describes NIOSH research demonstrating that the ventilation of large-opening mines improves significantly by including ventilation requirements in the mine planning process and implementing some practical techniques during mining.

Analysis of Seismic Signatures from Gas and Dust Based Explosions at the Lake Lynn Experimental Mine2/1/2008 - Conference papersA seismic monitoring system at NIOSH's Lake Lynn Experimental Mine has monitored gas and dust-based explosions and impact tests. Results suggest that large unrestricted explosions can generate the same magnitude as small restricted explosions.
-
1/1/2008 - Conference papersNIOSH researchers collected basic data from two blast rounds at the SSX-Steer Mine as a component of a larger study on controlled blasting, the goal of which is to reduce injuries from falling rocks in underground mines.
-
1/1/2008 - Conference papersThis paper presents a modification which corrects the mathematical error in the Holmberg-Persson approach to perimeter blast design.
-
11/1/2007 - Conference papersThis paper details laboratory noise testing results of a continuous mining machine conveyor system which uses a coating for the tail roller designed to help bring the continuous mining machine into compliance with federal noise regulations.
-
11/1/2007 - Conference papersThis paper presents a summary of remote mine firefighting technologies used in U.S. underground coal mines and the results of completed NIOSH research in that area.
