Abstract
The term dynamic in general means any phenomenon that evolves over time. Mathematically this dependency is defined as a function of time. Drawing parallels to the above definition, structural dynamics is the study of structures that undergo time varying displacements, velocities and acceleration at every point of their continuous extent in space.
Everything in life is vibration.
—Albert Einstein
