Nowadays, seismic design of structures performed by any seismic code is based on resisting previous natural earthquakes. \u003ci\u003eCritical Excitation Methods in Earthquake Engineering, Second Edition\u003c\/i\u003e, develops a new framework for modeling design earthquake loads for inelastic structures. The Second Edition, includes three new chapters covering the critical excitation problem for multi-component input ground motions, and that for elastic-plastic structures in a more direct way are incorporated and discussed in more depth. Finally, the problem of earthquake resilience of super high-rise buildings is discussed from broader viewpoints.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003ePreface to the first edition \u003cbr\u003ePreface to the second edition\u003cbr\u003e1.
