The mass matrix is a mathematical construct used in various fields, particularly in mechanics and numerical analysis. It is often associated with systems of particles or rigid bodies, and it plays a crucial role in the formulation of dynamic equations of motion. ### Definition: In the context of finite element analysis (FEA) and structural dynamics, the mass matrix represents the distribution of mass in a system and connects the nodal accelerations to the resulting forces.
