The above is a direct outcome of one of the key underlying assumptions of ANM - that a given crystal structure is an energetic minimum and does not require energy minimization.
 
The force constant of the system can be described by the [[Hessian Matrixmatrix]] – (second partial derivative of potential ''V''):
 
: <math>\Eta = \begin{bmatrix} {H_{ii}} & {H_{ij}} \\ {H_{ji}} & {H_{jj}} \end{bmatrix}. </math>
 
Each element ''H''<sub>''i'',''j''</sub> is a 3&nbsp;×&nbsp;3 matrix which holds the anisotropic information regarding the orientation of nodes ''i'',''j''. Each such sub matrix (or the "super element" of the Hessian) is defined as
