1/1/2000 - Conference papersAn approach for representing and analyzing random motions and hazardous events in a simulated three-dimensional workplace, providing designers and analysts with a new technique for evaluating operator-machine interaction hazards in virtual environments.
-
6/1/1999 - Conference papersAn experiment is described in which instrumented rock bolts were used to measure strain in the rock mass during drift development at the Stillwater Mine, Nye, Montana, USA.
-
3/1/1999 - Conference papersThis paper presents several case studies in which a mechanics-based boundary-element program is used to back-calculate the surface subsidence associated with various panels at several northern Appalachian coal mines.
-
3/1/1999 - Conference papersRecently, powerful design methods have emerged from analysis of large data bases of real-world pillar successes and failures. In the process, our understanding of pillar mechanics has been greatly enriched.

4/1/1998 - Conference papersResearchers from the Spokane Research Laboratory of the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) are developing numerical modeling tools to forecast time-dependent deformation around coal mine entries.
-
3/1/1998 - Conference papersThis paper describes a relatively simple indirect model for the parametric water injection process to extinguish diesel fuel fires in underground mine diesel refueling areas.
-
2/1/1998 - Conference papersResearch on applying the work principle to the non-ideal conditions of mining explosives to determine toxic fume production.
-
10/1/1997 - Conference papersTwelve subjects participated in an investigation of the biomechanical stresses of asymmetric lifting in stooped and kneeling postures. Three factors were manipulated in this study: posture (stooped or kneeling), height of lift (35 or 70 cm), and weight ...
-
8/1/1997 - Conference papersDemonstration of a technique developed at the Spokane Research Center that allows the user to create a finite-element model of a two-dimensional section of an underground mine in a relatively straightforward manner.
