Dr. Flores' primary research interest is the mechanical behavior of structural materials. Her work spans from the study of the fatigue behavior of high temperature intermetallics for turbine applications to the characterization of the failure mechanisms of bicycle helmet materials and the development of new techniques to measure the mechanical behavior of structural biomaterials. She has an active research program on bulk metallic glasses, with projects ranging from material characterization to the development of joining and manufacturing techniques in an effort to accelerate the incorporation of these novel materials in mainstream and high performance applications.
