The process of solving an ODE using the Laplace transform method consists of three
steps, shown schematically in Fig:
Step 1. The given ODE is transformed into an algebraic equation, called the subsidiary
equation.
Step 2. The subsidiary equation is solved by purely algebraic manipulations.
Step 3. The solution in Step 2 is transformed back, resulting in the solution of the given
problem.

(Laplace Transform).
Let f (t) be a function defined on the interval [0,∞). The Laplace
transform of f (t) is the function (of s)
7
(Exponential Order).
A function f (t) is of exponential order b if there
are numbers b, C > 0, and T > 0 such that
for t>T.
(Piecewise Continuous).
A function y = f (t) is piecewise continuous on the
finite interval [a, b] if y = f (t) is continuous at every point in [a, b] except at finitely
many points at which f (t) has a jump discontinuity.

The temperature distribution in a semi-infinite, thin , insulated rod is governed by the
one-dimensional heat equation
Assume that the left end of the rod is maintained at an arbitrary time dependent temperature
u(0,t)=f(t). Initially, the rod was at zero temperature u(x,0)=0. Find the distribution of the heat
flow, if the temperature is bounded as
Solution,
The initial condition is u(x,0)=0, 0 ≤ x < ∞, and the boundary condition is u(0,t)=f(t), t>0 and
u(x,t) is finite as
Taking Laplace transform of the differential equation, with respect to t, we get
or
10
The solution of this differential equation is
Applying Laplace transform to the condition that u(x,t) is finite as we obtain that
U(x,s) is finite as Hence, A(s)=0 and
U(0,s)=B(s)=F(s)
Hence,

Setting a=x/c and using the convolution theorem, we obtain

Fourier series and their ilk are designed to solve boundary value problems on bounded
intervals. The extension of the Fourier calculus to the entire real line leads naturally to the
Fourier transform, a powerful mathematical tool for the analysis of aperiodic functions. The
Fourier transform is of fundamental importance in a remarkably broad range of applications,
including both ordinary and partial differential equations, probability, quantum mechanics,
signal and image processing, and control theory.
Example :
f(x)=sin(x)
This function needs infinite degree for Taylor expansion.
