Extrusion-based additive manufacturing (AM) has recently become widespread for the layer-
by-layer fabrication of three-dimensional prototypes and components even with highly …

Glass is a material inextricably linked with human civilization. It is also the product of an
energy intensive industry. About 75%–85% of the total energy requirements to produce …

We review the current state of academic research in glass science in the United States. Our
analysis is based on an evaluation of the number of journal articles published across the …

Selective laser melting (SLM) is a technique for the additive manufacturing (AM) of metals,
plastics, and even ceramics. This paper explores using SLM for depositing glass structures …

Melting and primary fining represent the most essential steps in the glass manufacturing
process. Electric boosting and bubbling are common methods used to optimize these …

Thermoelectric energy recovery from waste heat in glass melting process is investigated
without any detrimental design or process changes. Melting glass pellets require a furnace …
