Structural dynamics is an important field of civil engineering, that is focused on the behavior of structures under dynamic loads. Dynamic loading is significantly different from static loading, and thus understanding the response of structures to these forces is essential for ensuring their performance and safety. This field involves mathematical modeling, simulation, and testing to analyze the response of structures to different types of dynamic loads. It is outlined that structural dynamics mainly refer to earthquake engineering and wind engineering. Dynamic loads become more important in the design of large-scale infrastructure such as bridges, dams, and power plants, since they can significantly impact the performance of the structure.
