Show inline math as if it were display math
Yesterday I've stumbled upon an article which covered just that, but I can't find it anymore.
How can I put the integration bounds above/below the integration operator instead of the default, where they're next to the symbol and push the integration term to the right?
You need to insert \limits after \iiiint:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{amsmath} % for \iiint macro
\begin{document}
\begin{equation}
m = \iiint\limits_E \rho \, \mathrm{d}V
\end{equation}
\end{document}
Please be aware that the default behaviour in displaymath mode is for the limits to appear above and below the symbol:
\[
\prod_{i = 1}^{n} a_{i} \quad \sum_{i = 1}^{n} a_{i} \quad \lim_{n
\to \infty} n^{2}
\]
The only exception to this is integrals:
\[
\int_{0}^{\infty} x^{2} \, dx
\]
The default behaviour in inline math mode is for the limits to appear to the side, e.g.
$\prod_{i = 1}^{n} a_{i} \quad \sum_{i = 1}^{n} a_{i} \quad \lim_{n
\to \infty} n^{2}$
The reason for this is to avoid irregular spacing between lines and excessive white space.

However, to force the limits to appear above and below in inline math
mode you can use \limits as suggested by Christian Hupfer.
$\prod\limits_{i = 1}^{n} a_{i} \quad \sum\limits_{i = 1}^{n} a_{i}
\quad \lim\limits_{n \to \infty} n^{2}$
And to force the limits to appear to the side in displaymath mode, you can use \nolimits
\[
\prod\nolimits_{i = 1}^{n} a_{i} \quad \sum\nolimits_{i = 1}^{n}
a_{i} \quad \lim\nolimits_{n \to \infty} n^{2}
\]

Use the
\displaylimitscommand.See page 16 of the amsmath package documentation for details (although you don't actually need amsmath for this).
