Hey hive mind - I'm keen to start a PhD and move toward academia, and am thinking about potential research topics. I'm an experienced structural #engineer and want to transition toward #sustainability as much as I can. But I'm not sure what that means for viable #research areas...
I have particular expertise in mechanics of #materials, software development ( #Python and #JavaScript), and cold-formed steel / #buckling of thin-walled structures.
Anyone out there have any suggestions for specific topics or general directions?
