What are the applications of

Laplace Transform?
1) System Modelling
Laplace transform is used to simplify calculations in
system modelling, where large differential
equations are used.

2) Analysis of Electrical Circuits

In electrical circuits, a Laplace transform is used for
the analysis of linear time-invariant systems.

3) Analysis of Electronic Circuits

Laplace transform is widely used by Electronics
engineers to quickly solve differential equations
occurring in the analysis of electronic circuits.

4) Digital Signal Processing

One cannot imagine solving DSP (Digital Signal
processing) problems without employing Laplace
transform.

5) Nuclear Physics
In order to get the true form of radioactive decay, a
Laplace transform is used. It makes studying
analytic part of Nuclear Physics possible.

6) Process Controls
Laplace transforms are critical for process controls.
It helps analyze the variables, which when altered,
produces desired manipulations in the result.

What did Laplace Transform

help with our daily lives?
Although this is one way of solving differential
equations through an algebraically manageable
equation, the “daily life” applications for Laplace
transformations is concentrated engineering.
Laplace transformations can be used whether
around you’re an engineer analyzing circuits,
analyzing systems of heating and air
conditioning, or construction and building.
Generally, Laplace transformation is good for
analyzing a variable that is transformed in the
creation of a product, and explains why it is so
useful in hydraulic, mechanical, electrical, and
thermal control systems.

Solve the following samples

using Laplace Transform:

a. ƒ(t) = 1 d. ƒ(t) = e±at

b. ƒ(t) = t e. ƒ(t) = e±at sin
kt
c. ƒ(t) = tn
