11/25/2019 - Peer reviewed journal articlesThis paper quantifies luminance photometer measurement errors when measuring light sources commonly used in U.S. underground coal mines.
-
10/1/1978 - Conference papersThe analysis of a machine-luminaire configuration is well suited to computer analysis; the incident light levels can be calculated at the required set of points. This paper presents a description of the techniques involved in this simulation.
-
10/1/2009 - Conference papersThe main objective of the NIOSH research outlined in this paper was to explore the existence of visual performance improvements through the implementation of different machine mounted, lighting systems.
-
1/9/2024 - Research projectsTo investigate the feasibility and efficacy of human-centric lighting (HCL) interventions to reduce mineworker circadian disruption (CD) and improve well-being for underground metal and coal miners.
-
3/15/2017 - Contracts and cooperative agreementsA capacity-building contract to (1) develop light technology to identify roof problems and (2) use FLAC3D to model highwall stability and determine the effects of ground vibrations from blasting.
-
3/10/2020 - Research projectsA project to reduce the risk of fatalities and serious injuries by using human visual performance data to develop specifications for visual cues and technologies that will improve situational awareness and decisionmaking during self-escape.
