Initial value theorem

Conditions for initial value theorem Statement:


are Initial value theorem is given by:
1. If t approaches to 0+,
function f(t) should exist lim f ( t )=¿ lim sF ( s ) =f (0)¿
t →0 s→∞

i.e., lim t→0+ f(t) should exist


Function f(t) and its derivative f’(t) Where F(s) is Laplace transform of
should be laplace transformable. f(t).

Statement Proof:

L [ f ' ( t ) ] =s L [ f ( t )−f ( 0 ) ] =sF ( s )−f (0)


Initial value theorem is given by
lim t→0+ f(t) = lim s→∞ sF(s) = f(0+)

𝐿[𝑓 ′ (𝑡)] = 𝑠 𝐿[𝑓(𝑡)] − 𝑓(0) = 𝑠𝐹(𝑠) −


Where F(s) is laplace transform

𝑓(0)
of f(t).

∴ 𝑠𝐹(𝑠)
Proof
𝐿[𝑓 ′ (𝑡)] = 𝑠 𝐿[𝑓(𝑡)] − 𝑓(0) = 𝑠𝐹(𝑠) − = 𝐿[𝑓 ′ (𝑡)] + 𝑓(0)
We know that,

𝑓(0) = ∫0 ∞ e −𝑠𝑡𝑓 ′ (𝑡)𝑑𝑡 + 𝑓(0)


∴ 𝑠𝐹(𝑠)
= 𝐿[𝑓 ′ (𝑡)] + 𝑓(0)
= ∫0 ∞ e −𝑠𝑡𝑓 ′ (𝑡)𝑑𝑡 + 𝑓(0)

Taking limit as 𝑠 → ∞ on both sides,

lim𝑠→∞ 𝑠𝐹(𝑠) = lim 𝑠→∞ [∫0 ∞ e −𝑠𝑡𝑓 ′


we have

(𝑡)𝑑𝑡 + 𝑓(0) ]
= lim𝑠→∞ [∫0 ∞ e −𝑠𝑡𝑓 ′ (𝑡)𝑑𝑡 ] + 𝑓(0)
= ∫0 ∞ lim [ e −𝑠𝑡𝑓 ′ (𝑡)]𝑑𝑡 + 𝑓(0)
= 0 + 𝑓(0) ∵ e−∞ = 0
= 𝑓(0)
= lim 𝑓(𝑡)
𝑡→0

∴ lim𝑠→∞ 𝑠𝐹(𝑠) = lim 𝑡→0 𝑓(𝑡)
