Structural dynamics is a branch of structural engineering that deals with the behavior of structures under dynamic loading, such as earthquakes, wind, vibrations, and other dynamic forces. It involves studying the response of structures to these dynamic loads, including their natural frequencies, modes of vibration, damping properties, and the effects of these phenomena on the structural integrity and safety. It's crucial for designing resilient structures, such as bridges, buildings, and towers
