The way finite element analysis obtains the temperatures, stresses, flows, or other desired. unknown parameters in the finite element model are by minimizing an energy functional. An energy functional consists of all the energies associated with the particular fini te. element model.
Chile is situated in southern South America, bordering the South Pacific Ocean and a small part of the South Atlantic Ocean. Chile's territorial shape is among the world's most unusual. From north to south, Chile extends 4,270 km (2,653 mi), and yet it only averages 177 km (110 mi) east to west.
Santiago de Chile [sanËtjaÉ£o Ã°e ËtÊile], or simply Santiago, is the capital and largest city of Chile as well as one of the largest cities in the Americas. It is the center of Chile's largest and the most densely populated conurbation. The city is entirely located in the country's central valley, at an elevation of 520 m (1,706 ft) above mean sea level.
