8/1/2003 - Conference papersThe advance-and-relieve method benefits from lateral destressing. Numerical modeling proved useful in studying the basic mechanics of lateral relief while investigating the sensitivity of results to different parameters using controlled experiments.
-
2/1/2010 - Conference papersThis paper discusses the role of ventilation modeling in evaluating primary escapeway pressurization in a three-entry development system to improve emergency escape in a coal mine using belt air.
-
2/1/2009 - Conference papersThis paper discusses the current ventilation practices regarding the use of belt air during gateroad development and longwall panel extraction.
-
1/1/2009 - Conference papersThis paper introduces two position adjustment methods for mine tracking systems which use a coplanar node-path network mine model as the foundation for their development.
-
9/1/2007 - Conference papersResearchers with NIOSH studied the electrical equipment ignition sources for the Brookwood and other disasters to develop recommendations for preventing similar disasters.
-
8/1/2005 - Conference papersThe conclusion drawn from this study was that standing supports do not have sufficient capacity to control main roof or floor loading or prevent the resulting convergence of the tailgate entry.
-
2/1/2005 - Conference papersDiesel fuel fire experiments were conducted to determine the critical air velocity for preventing smoke rollback. Experimental results compared very well with model predictions based upon a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) fire dynamics simulator.
-
6/1/2001 - Conference papersA project to evaluate the South African bagged stone dust explosion barrier was successfully completed at the NIOSH Lake Lynn Experimental Mine.
