What's the difference? TY AG

Kinematics are about what are the physical observables. Dynamics is about how they evolve given boundary and initial conditions.

So, when it's claimed that SR can be applied to accelerating frames, does this only apply to kinematics, which is what some physicists claim? AG

SR works for accelerated frames. In fact a static accelerated frame is just a set of Lorentz boosts; just kinematics in a way.
