A fully-coupled seismic risk or safety assessment of a structural system, and its accompanying analysis of uncertainty, provides estimates of the annual probability of exceeding pre-defined performance levels, defined either in terms of structural responses or more qualitatively defined damage states.

Assembling the molecular systems from preliminarily prepared metal ion and individual ligand fragments and analyzing the components of the total bonding energy (Pauli repulsion, electrostatic interactions and orbital part), we noticed interesting correlations between the orbital part and the simple formulas of the qualitatively defined ligand field stabilization energy (LFSE).
A simple count of qualitatively defined grip types would thus provide insufficient information to evaluate the true manipulative complexity of this real-world activity.
Community structure is a common feature of many networks: Communities can be qualitatively defined as subgraphs with dense connections within themselves and sparser ones between them.
