The increasing need for housing and infrastructures with the exponential population growth, especially in seismic-prone areas, raises the need to have earthquake-resistant structures.\u00a0The objective of this Special Issue is to bring together the most recent research trends and advances in structural dynamics and earthquake engineering to support the needs of professionals and researchers engaged in civil structures and infrastructures under a variety of external actions such as earthquakes, wind, vibrations, and extreme loads.\u00a0This Special Issue can serve as a source of high-impact publications for the global community of researchers in the traditional, as well as emerging, subdisciplines of structural dynamics and earthquake engineering.
