Please I need an idea to calculate the embodied energy considering various inputs such as volume, area, mass, such that EE=Mass x Ei, where Ei is the energy per unit material. Addition for multiple number of materials

Mass = [10 50 30]; % mass of three materials
Ei = [ 4 2 1]; % embodied energy per unit mass for those materials
EE = sum(Mass.*Ei); % total embodied energy
If you have no mass but you have density and volume, mass is density*volume.
