The Dynamic Systems discipline involves the application of dynamic systems concepts including control principles and practices across a range of aviation products and their analysis, test, and operations. Examples of applications in this discipline include aircraft flight dynamics, engine dynamics, propulsion drivetrains and other system dynamics, vibration, loads, and aeroelasticity.

The technical expert for Dynamic Systems promotes aviation safety by leading research, guidance, training, and policy development relating to dynamic systems. They are also responsible for supporting accident investigation involving vehicle or system dynamics or loads, or the dynamic interactions between systems and its normal operation and failure modes.
