I find the name Nodal* ambiguous since I wanted to rename some time ago the ConstantForceField and UniformMass respectively as NodalForceField and NodalMass
To me Nodal is inducing the absence of space integration

In that case, there is no space integration. The density is really defined only on nodes.

This could have integrated a check on non-negative values

I would need some clarification on this BaseNodalProperty, would you like to extend it in the future for additional information?

Yes, mechanical parameters for example

This PR adds a new finite-element mass implementation that builds a sparse global mass matrix from per-element quadrature, using nodal density values instead of a single uniform density.
It also introduces support for computing both kinetic and gravitational potential energy from that mass matrix, along with the corresponding force and matrix-assembly paths.
A new generic nodal-property abstraction was added so density can be stored per node and validated against the mechanical state’s scalar type.
The finite-element helpers were extended with shape-function evaluation and interpolation utilities needed for the mass integration.
The validation example was updated to use the new nodal-density-driven FEM mass setup.
