In this paper, inspired by quantum field theory, or more specifically QED, wepropose a dynamical model for relativity. By adopting the approach provided bythis dynamical model, we provide a dynamical explanation for relativisticphenomena such as length contraction, time dilation and clockdesynchronization. The result of the dynamical approach for clockdesynchronization is especially interesting. Our dynamical approach exhauststhe freedom for different clock synchronizations on frames accelerated from aninitial reference frame, which is allowed by Einstein's principle approach.Furthermore, our dynamical approach arrives at the interesting conclusion thatEinstein's equivalence principle and gravitational redshift are necessary toexplain special relativistic clock desynchronization. This result shows thatspecial relativity by itself is an incomplete theory. If our dynamical modelassumptions are assumed to be valid at a fundamental level, it implies somemodifications to quantum field theory and general relativity via theequivalence principle. These modifications have been discussed.
