which are the current trends of analysis?

(OP)
I wonder what is the future of structural analysis .In my country most engineers work with elastic and empirical methods since most buildings are the same multi storey r/c blocks of flats.I would like to work on something new and i dont know what.Is pushover worth-while or should i work on something else.Since i am a new engineer i would like some ideas from your experience.Thanks in advance

RE: which are the current trends of analysis?

nik,
Looks like you need some career guidance. You need to get your nose into the business before you can tell where to from school or college.

I would recommend you read "What colour is your parachute" and do the exercises. Then rough out a 5 year plan
* Where are you now
* Where do you want to be 5 years from now
* What must you start doing now to make it to your longer term goal

Then do a bit of market research
* Check out the technical magazines in a Library
* Surf the net
* What ballpark do you want to play in

1 - aerospace
2 - oil and gas
3 - dynamics and vibration
4 - fracture mechanics
5 - failure analysis
6 - mining engineering
7 - mechanical structures

The list is endless - it boggles the mind

P.S if you still need some help try google for creative problem solving.
