Traditional quality control in manufacturing involves sampling a percentage of products as they roll off the line to make sure they are made to specifications. But what about small-batch, customized parts that can be produced with 3D printing? Joseph Newkirk, professor of materials science and engineering, is part of a team developing quality-control methods for advanced manufacturing in small numbers – even one-offs – to ensure parts meet expectations.

Particle gel could solve low heat production efficiency for geothermal energy
Geothermal energy comes from heated water or steam within the earth and provides a renewable source of energy to heat buildings and generate electricity. But many geothermal reservoirs also have an inherent problem – geological fractures that allow water to divert into other areas, cooling the water and the surrounding rock and limiting the efficiency of heat extraction from underground reservoirs. Researchers at Missouri S&T are working on a solution.
