Chapter 3
Learning Outcomes
Upon the completion of this chapter, students are able
to:
Convert Ordinary Differential Equation, ODE
equations to algebraic equations using Laplace
Transform
Laplace Transforms (LT)
1. Standard notation in dynamics and control
2. Converts ordinary differential equation to algebraic operations
3. Laplace transforms play a key role in important process
control concepts and techniques.
Examples:
• Transfer functions
• Frequency response
• Control system design
• Stability analysis

From Table 3.1,
Here D(s) is an n-th order polynomial with the roots all being real
numbers which are distinct so there are no repeated roots.

Three methods to solve PFE
Calculate the value of for the below equation
Method 2:Because the above eq must be valid for all value if s,we can specify
two values of s and solve for the two constant
Method 3:The fastest and most popular method is call HEAVISIDE EXPANSION.
In this method multiply both side of the equation by one of the denominator
term (s+bi) and then set s=-bi, which causes all terms except one to be multiplied
by zero.

L y t θ eθsY s
C. Initial value theorem
lim y(t)= lim sY(s)
t 0 s
Example:
