:<math>T = \frac{1}{2} \dot q^\mathrm{T} M \dot q</math>
where <math>\dot q^\mathrm{T}</math> denotes the [[matrix transpose|transpose]] of the vector <math>\dot q</math>.<ref name=Riley/> This equation is analogous to the formula for the kinetic energy of a particle with mass <math>m</math> and velocity ''v'', namely
:<math>T \;=\; \frac{1}{2} m|v|^2 \;=\; \frac{1}{2} v\cdot m v </math>
and can be derived from it, by expressing the position of each particle of the system in terms of ''q''.
 
In general, the mass matrix ''M'' depends on the state ''q'', and therefore varies with time.
 
[[Lagrangian mechanics]] yields an [[ordinary differential equation]] (actually, a system of coupled differential equations) that describes the evolution of a system in terms of an arbitrary vector of generalized coordinates that completely defines the position of every particle in the system. The kinetic energy formula above is one term of that equation, that represents the total kinetic energy of all the particles.
==Examples==
===Two-body unidimensional system ===
[[File:Mass matrix masses in 1d.svg|thumb|System of masses in one spatial dimension.]]
 
For example, consider a system consisting of two point-like masses confined to a straight track.  The state of that systems can be described by a vector ''q'' of two generalized coordinates, namely the positions of the two particles along the track.  
:<math>q=[x_1\, x_2]^\mathrm{T}</math>.
Supposing the particles have masses ''m''<sub>1</sub>, ''m''<sub>2</sub>, the kinetic energy of the system is
:<math>T = \sum_{i=1}^{2} \frac{1}{2} m_i \dot x_i{}^2</math>
This formula can also be written as
:<math>T=\frac{1}{2} \dot q^\mathrm{T} M \dot q</math>
where
:<math>M=\begin{bmatrix}m_1&0\\0 & m_2\end{bmatrix}</math>
 
===N-body system ===
More generally, consider a system of ''N'' particles labelled by an index ''i'' = 1, 2,...,''N'', where the position of particle number ''i'' is defined by ''n<sub>i</sub>'' free Cartesian coordinates (where ''n<sub>i</sub>'' is 1, 2, or 3).  Let ''q'' be the column vector comprising all those coordinates. The mass matrix ''M'' is the [[diagonal matrix|diagonal]] [[block matrix]] where each in each block the diagonal elements are the mass of the corresponding particle:<ref name=Hand/>
 
:<math>M = \mathrm{diag}[ m_1 I_{n_1}, m_2 I_{n_2}, \cdots, m_N I_{n_N} ] </math>
 
where '''I'''<sub>''n i''</sub> is the ''n<sub>i</sub>'' × ''n<sub>i</sub>'' [[identity matrix]], or more fully:
 
<math>
M = \begin{bmatrix}
m_1 & \cdots & 0 & 0 & \cdots & 0 & \cdots & 0 & \cdots & 0 \\
\vdots & \ddots & \vdots & \vdots & \ddots & \vdots & \ddots &\vdots & \ddots & \vdots \\
0 & \cdots & m_1 & 0 & \cdots & 0 & \cdots & 0 & \cdots & 0 \\
0 & \cdots & 0 & m_2 & \cdots & 0 & \cdots & 0 & \cdots & 0 \\
\vdots & \ddots & \vdots & \vdots & \ddots & \vdots & \ddots &\vdots & \ddots & \vdots \\
0 & \cdots & 0 & 0 & \cdots & m_2 & \cdots & 0 & \cdots & 0 \\
\vdots & \ddots & \vdots & \vdots & \ddots & \vdots & \ddots & \vdots & \ddots & \vdots \\
0 & \cdots & 0 & 0 & \cdots & 0 & \cdots & m_n & \cdots & 0 \\
\vdots & \ddots & \vdots & \vdots & \ddots & \vdots & \ddots & \vdots & \ddots & \vdots \\
0 & \cdots & 0 & 0 & \cdots & 0 & \cdots & 0 & \cdots & m_n\\
\end{bmatrix}
</math>
 
=== Rotating dumbbell ===
 
[[File:Mass matrix rotating dumbbell.svg|thumb|Rotating dumbbell.]]
 
For a less trivial example, consider two point-like objects with masses ''m''<sub>1</sub>, ''m''<sub>2</sub>, attached to the ends of a rigid massless bar with length 2''R'', the assembly being free to rotate and slide over a fixed plane. The state of the system can be described by the generalized coordinate vector
:<math>q=[ x, y, \alpha]</math>  
where ''x'', ''y'' are the Cartesian coordinates of the bar's midpoint and ''α'' is the angle of the bar from some arbitrary reference direction. The positions and velocities of the two particles are
:<math>
  \begin{array}{ll}
    p_1 = (x,y) + R(\cos\alpha, \sin\alpha) & v_1 = (\dot x,\dot y) + R\dot \alpha(-\sin\alpha, \cos\alpha) \\
    p_2 = (x,y) - R(\cos\alpha, \sin\alpha) & v_2 = (\dot x,\dot y) - R\dot \alpha(-\sin\alpha, \cos\alpha)
  \end{array}
</math>
and their total kinetic energy is
:<math>T = m\dot x^2 + m\dot y^2 + mR^2\dot\alpha^2 + 2R d \cos\alpha \dot x \dot \alpha + 2R d  \sin\alpha \dot y \dot \alpha</math>
where <math>m  = m_1 + m_2</math> and <math>d = m_1 - m_2</math>. This formula can be written in matrix form as
:<math>T=\frac{1}{2} \dot q^\mathrm{T} M \dot q</math>
where
:<math>M=\begin{bmatrix}m&0&R d \cos\alpha\\0 & m & R d \sin\alpha \\ R d \cos\alpha & R d \sin\alpha & R^2 m\end{bmatrix}</math>
Note that the matrix depends on the current angle ''α'' of the bar.
 
==Continuum mechanics==
 
For discrete approximations of [[continuum mechanics]] as in the [[finite element method]], there may be more than one way to construct the mass matrix, depending on desired computational and accuracy performance. For example, a lumped-mass method, in which the deformation of each element is ignored, creates a diagonal mass matrix and negates the need to integrate mass across the deformed element.

When it concerns saving electricity, it pays to store. American consumers pay about $25 million annually to heat and cool air that fundamentally escapes to the outdoors. The collective charge for this lost energy is great, a sum equivalent to the importance of the oil created by the Alaska Pipeline.

Sense is made by it to take into account the performance of your house. Take a moment to consider your windows, as you do. Windows are one of the major sourced elements of air leakage, letting hot air to creep indoors during the summer and warm, hot air to work its way outside in the colder months. By using the right steps, you are able to successfully boost window insulation and better take care of the general comfort level of one"s home.

Here are five window warmth methods, given by Comfortex BlindCrafter Centers, to assist you conserve energy this winter:

* Caulk cracks or holes in your windows or install weather stripping round the window sash and body to seal off the areas susceptible to ventilation.

* Install either interior or exterior storm windows. The heat loss can be easily reduced by storm windows throughout your windows by 25 percent to 50 percent while limiting drafts and condensation. Be certain the storm windows have sufficient climate stripping and interlocking or overlapping bones to increase their performance.

* Insulate your property with energy-efficient draperies, such on your own windows to prevent cold air from entering and hot air from escaping as an insulating barrier that is provided by cellular shades,.

* Keep drapes and window treatments closed through the night. Learn more on this partner paper - Click here: sponsors. Start them during the day to benefit from sunshine for normal solar heat. Certified Energy Procurement Professional includes additional info about the purpose of this viewpoint.

* Clean your windows, specially on the southern side of your home. This allows for maximum solar gain during the day and clean glass allows this to happen more quickly.

You could be able to have them for free, if you"d prefer to add new window treatments to greatly help save yourself energy in your home.

Comfortex BlindCrafter has launched a nationwide Ultimate Screen Tone Makeover Competition. Commercial Led Lighting contains more concerning the reason for it. Comfortex custom window shades will be received by the grand prize winner for each window in their house - a $25,000 price..
