Laplace Transforms with MATLAB :

You can compute Laplace transform using the symbolic toolbox of MATLAB. If you want to
compute the Laplace transform of
a) x(t) = t , you can use the following MATLAB program.

>> syms f t
>> f=t;
>> laplace(f)

ans =1/s^2
where f and t are the symbolic variables, f the function, t the time variable.

b)

>> syms t s
>> f=-1.25+3.5*t*exp(-2*t)+1.25*exp(-2*t);
>> F=laplace(f,t,s)
>>simplify(F)
>>pretty(ans)

Alternatively, one can write the function f(t) directly as part of the laplace command:
>>F2=laplace(-1.25+3.5*t*exp(-2*t)+1.25*exp(-2*t))
C)

Matlab performs Laplace transform symbolically. Thus, you need to first define the variable t as a
"symbol".

>> syms t

Next, enter the function f(t):

>> f=5*exp(-2*t);

Finally, enter the following command:

>> L=laplace(f)

Matlab yields the following answer:

L =

5/(s+2)

You may want to carry out the transformation by hand (or using Laplace transform table) to verify this
result.

Inverse Laplace Transform with MATLAB:

The command one uses now is ilaplace. One also needs to define the symbols t and s.

Lets calculate the inverse of the previous function F(s),

1)

>> syms t s
>> F=(s-5)/(s*(s+2)^2);
>> ilaplace(F)
ans =
-5/4+(7/2*t+5/4)*exp(-2*t)

>> simplify(ans)

ans =
-5/4+7/2*t*exp(-2*t)+5/4*exp(-2*t)

>> pretty(ans)

- 5/4 + 7/2 t exp(-2 t) + 5/4 exp(-2 t)

Alternatively one can write

>> ilaplace ((s-5)/(s*(s+2)^2))

2)

>> F=10*(s+2)/(s*(s^2+4*s+5));
>> ilaplace(F)
ans =
-4*exp(-2*t)*cos(t)+2*exp(-2*t)*sin(t)+4

Which gives f(t),

3)

>> syms F S
>> F=24/(s*(s+8));
>> ilaplace(F)
ans =

3-3*exp(-8*t)

4) Find the inverse Laplace transform of

In Matlab Command window:

>> ilaplace(1/s-2/(s+4)+1/(s+5))

Matlab result:
ans =

1-2*exp(-4*t)+exp(-5*t)

or

which is the solution of the differential equation
