Abstract:-
Laplace Transform has in recent years become an essential part of mathematical
background required of engineering and scientists because transform methods provide
an easy and effective means for the solution of many problems arising in engineering .
Laplace Transform help in solving complex problems with a very simple approach just
like the application of transfer functions to solve ordinary differential equations. This
paper will discuss some basic concepts of Laplace Transform and its application in the
areas of Physics ,several well-known electric circuits.
Introduction :-
1.The Laplace Transform:-
The Laplace transform F(s) of some function f(t) is defined as:
F (s) = L {f (t)} =
where t is a real number and s is a complex number. Again, as in the recurrence relation case, convince
yourself that this has meaning: As long as s is positive, will decay to 0 as t , and the product of ,
and f (t) will converge so long as f(t) doesn’t grow at some crazy rate.
One important property of the Laplace transform is that it is a linear operator. That is, if a and b
are constants:
L {a f (t) + b g(t)} = aL {f (t)} + bL {g(t)}
This follows because integration is a linear operator:

F (s) = dt
F(s) = [- ] where t→ 0 to T
F (s) = [ ]
is obviously 1, and so
F (s) = [ ]
L {1} = ,s>0
Notice that a constant function in the t-domain is not a constant function in the s-domain.
3. Laplace Transform of a derivative:-
Suppose we want the Laplace transform of f ’(t), but we don’t know f (t). Can we find the transform in
terms of L{f (t)}?
We have a product of two functions of t that we need to integrate. We can use integration by parts to
find:

L{ f ’(t) } = + f ’(t)dt
We can use this rule to find higher order derivative. For example:
g(t) =
Then:
G(s) = F(s)
So with the Laplace transform, derivatives and integrals turn into algebraic
factors.
5.Common Laplace Transform :-
L(1) =
L(t) =
L(tn)= n!/sn+1
L( )=1/s-a
L{sin(at)}=a/s2+a2
L{cos(at)}=s/s2+a2

0 , t<0
H(t) =
1 , t 0
In essence, this says that shifting a function in the t-domain multiplies the unction
some exponential factor in the s-domain.
7. The Delta Function
Consider a function (t), where is some small, positive constant:
, 0
(t)
0, t
The area under the function 1 regardless of the value we pick for
dt 1/ [t] where t 0 to
(t)
This leaves us with a function with some somewhat odd properties. At t = 0, there is a
spike that is infinitely high and infinitely narrow, but the
area under the spike is still only 1:
1
0, t

The physical analogue of the delta function might be a sharp blow from a hammer to a
mass-spring system, which imparts a nearly instantaneous but finite impulse.
Notice that the derivative of the step function is the delta function
H(t)
8. Periodic Functions
Let’s say that we want to find the Laplace transform of a function that repeats
periodically. We say that the window of a function f with a period of T is:
f(t) =
k
F(s) = = W(s)
So finally:

It turns out that the answer is “yes”, but it’s difficult to prove, so the result will be
presented without proof:
If f(t) and g(t) are continuous functions and L{f(t)} = L{g(t)}, then f(t) = g(t) for all t
other words, for continuous functions, the Laplace transform is unique.
Given that, if F (s) = L{f(t)} and f(t) is continuous and of exponential order:
f(t) = {F(s)}
A function has \exponential order” if and only if there exists some and M such that
│f(t)│ , for all t
10. Convolutions
Often when performing an inverse Laplace transform, we encounter a product
of two terms whose inverses we recognize. A result, which we will not prove, is that:
{F(s)G(s)}

Step 3-Apply Inverse L.T. to Y(s) obtained in step 2.This yields the solution of O.D.E.(1) satisfying the
initial condition 2 as ,
y(t)= {Y(s)}.
Example:-Solve the following O.D.E. by using the L.T.,
Y”-2y’-8y=0 ; the initial conditions are y(0)=3 and y’(0)=6
Solution:-
Apply L.T. we get,
(s2Y-3s-6)-2(sY-3)-8Y=0
Solving we get,
Y(s) = =
Y(s) = +
Applying inverse L.T. we get,
y(t) = (Y(s)) = 2 +
=2 +

V(s) = +
The definition of complex impedance Z(in ohms) is the ratio of complex voltage V divided by the
complex current I while holding the initial value V0 at zero.
Z(s) = at V0 = 0.
Z(s) =
Which is the correct expression for the complex impedance of a capacitor.
3.Finding the transfer function from the impulse response:-
This example is based on the concepts from signal processing and describes the dynamic behavior of a
damped harmonic oscillator. See also a RLC circuit.
Consider a linear time-invarient system with impulse response,
h(t) = A cos(
such that

Is the time delay of the systems (in seconds),and u(t) is the Heaviside step function.
The transfer function is simply the Laplace transform of the impulse response:
H(s) L{h(t)} A
=A
Where,
Is the (undamped) natural frequency or resonance of the system (in radians per seconds).
CONCLUSION :-
The Laplace transform is a very useful tool for solving homogeneous and non-homogeneous
differential equations, also it is a very powerful technique for analyzing linear time-invariant systems
such as electric circuits,harmonic oscillators,optical devices andmechanical systems,…etc.
