In finite element analysis, the structure to be analyzed is subdivided into a mesh of finite sized elements of simple shape, and then the whole structure is solved with quite easiness. 1

2. As you can see in the picture below that an incorrect equation is formed using matchsticks. 8 + 9 = 4 You need to move three matchsticks to make the equation correct. I can do it by three ways. What about you ? 1
