His main line of research is the study of the mechanical properties and the physical (relaxation and crystallisation processes) and chemical (corrosion resistance) stability of amorphous metals. He has published more than 100 articles in scientific journals and has supervised 10 doctoral theses. Since 1998 he has been the principal investigator in a series of projects funded by Spain National Plan for Scientific and Technical Research and Innovation and an ERA-Net project of the European Union. He directed a technology transfer project on fluid mechanics in 2004.
