Abstract:- Mathematics is a methodical application of matter. It is so said because the subject makes a man methodical or
more systematic. To justify & validate research findings, various mathematical tools are used. Laplace transform plays a vital
role in wide field of science & technology which can be considered as a shortcut for complex calculations. This paper provides
solid foundation of what Laplace transform is and its properties and its application in various fields which can further be
useful in real life as well.
Keywords:- Laplace Transform, Mass Spring Damper System, Chemical Pollution, Transfer Function.
Let K(s, t) be a function of two variables‘s’ and ‘t’ where‘s’ is a parameter (may be real or complex) independent of t. The
function f(s) defined by the integral (assumed to be convergent)
∞
∞
is called the Integral transform of the function F(t) and is denoted by L{F(t)}
The function 𝐾(𝑠, 𝑡) is called the Kernel of the transformation (also called Integral Kernel or Nucleus).
A. Laplace Transform:
If the Kernel 𝐾(𝑠, 𝑡) is defined as
0 , 𝑓𝑜𝑟 𝑡 < 0
K(s, t) = {
𝑒 −𝑠𝑡 , 𝑓𝑜𝑟 𝑡 ≥ 0
∞
then 𝑓(𝑠) = ∫0 𝑒 −𝑠𝑡 𝐹(𝑡)𝑑𝑡
The f(s) defined by the above equation is called the Laplace Transform of the function F(t) and is also denoted by L{F(t)} or
F(s).

Graph of solution of the system
Fig. (1.2)
Depending upon the mass, spring coefficient and damper coefficient, different responses to the system can be recorded. It is
necessary to analyze the mass-spring-damper system mathematically to be able to size your spring, damper and the mass of the object
you want to stabilize and to be able to describe the reaction for a given system.
The formulation that governs time dependent concentration of an aqueous species in a reservoir is,

𝑉 = 𝑄𝐶0 − 𝑄𝐶
Assuming only fresh water is coming in,
∴ 𝐶0 = 0

Ex.
How much time would it take for pollutant to reach acceptable level if volume of lake is 25 × 106𝑚3,
Flow of fresh water is 1.5 × 106 𝑚3 , initial concentration of contaminant is 106 𝑝𝑎𝑟𝑡𝑠/𝑚3 & acceptable level of pollutant is 5 × 106 𝑚3 ?

Solving it with given data,required time can be calculated as 𝑡 = 11.55 units approximately
Hence, such a model can be prepared to overcome water pollution which has serious ill effects over human health.

To construct a differential equation for head H we know, mass flow rate into tank is equal to mass in flow rate – mass out flow
rate.
𝑑𝐻
Hence ρA * = ρ Qin - ρ Qout

i.e. A * = Qin – CH……..

Hence Qin = A * + CH

Hence using this transfer function we can control the water level in tank.

III. CONCLUSION
In this paper we have tried focusing on such unusual applications of Laplace Transform which may resolve many practical
problems in day to day life in easier way.
Such as Mass Damper System takes care of an individual’s comfort. Chemical Pollution model may help us to reduce hazardous
chemicals in water which may in turn be beneficial to human life. Also the Transfer function derived by using Laplace Transform may
help us to regulate water which is very important natural resource.
