Chapter 6: The Laplace Transformation


Definitions: Improper Integral, Piecewise Continuous Function Integral Transforms, Kernel The Laplace Transform Continuous Exponential Order Unit Step Function (Heaviside Function) Unit Impulse Function, Delta Function Convolution Transfer Function, Impulse Response Theorems: Theorem 6.1.1: Comparison Test for Improper Integrals (p. 307) Theorem 6.1.2: Existence of the Laplace Transform, F(s) (p. 308) Theorem 6.2.1: Laplace Transform of f (t) (p. 313) Corollary 6.2.2: Laplace Transform of f (n) (t) (p. 314) Theorem 6.3.1: Transform of the unit step function, uc(t), times a shifted function, f(t - c) (p. 326) Theorem 6.3.2: First Translation Theorem; Inverse Transforming F(s - c) (p. 328) Theorem 6.6.1: Second Translation Theorem; Convolution Result (p. 345) Important Skills: The Laplace transformation is defined through an improper integral. You must be comfortable evaluating improper integrals. Hence you should review this topic in any calculus book. Be able to calculate the transform of all the basic functions, given in the table on page 317. (Ex. 5, 7, & 8, p. 309 - 310) Even more importantly, know how to compute inverse transform functions using manipulative translation methods. You may need to use partial fractions, but you should have already reviewed this for Chapter 2. (Ex. 2 & 3, p. 318 - 319) Know how to transform derivatives of functions and linear differential equations. (Thm. 6.2.1 & Cor. 6.2.2, p. 313 - 314; Ex. 2 & 3, p. 318 - 319) Understand the unit function, uc(t) , as well as, the unit impulse function, (t) , and how to use them in transforming and inverse transforming functions. (Ex. 1, p. 324; Ex. 1, p. 342) The process of using the Laplace transform method is as follows: Given a differential equation, one transforms both sides of the equation. One will need to input the initial values when transforming derivatives. Derivatives with respect to t transform to polynomials in s. If the differential equation is linear, then the resulting equation is linear in Y(s). You simply solve the equation for Y(s), and then use all the methods available to recover y(t). (Ex. 2, p. 318 for continuous forcing; Ex. 1, p. 342 for discontinuous forcing.) Relevant Applications: Mechanical and electrical problems with discontinuous forcing functions.
