I have been informed that on March 7th from 6:00am to 6:00pm Central Time Lamar University will be doing some maintenance to replace a faulty UPS component and to do this they will be completely powering down their data center.

Unfortunately, this means that the site will be down during this time. I apologize for any inconvenience this might cause.

Mobile Notice You appear to be on a device with a "narrow" screen width (i.e. you are probably on a mobile phone). Due to the nature of the mathematics on this site it is best viewed in landscape mode. If your device is not in landscape mode many of the equations will run off the side of your device (you should be able to scroll/swipe to see them) and some of the menu items will be cut off due to the narrow screen width.

Table Notes

  1. This list is not a complete listing of Laplace transforms and only contains some of the more commonly used Laplace transforms and formulas.
  2. Recall the definition of hyperbolic functions. \[\cosh \left( t \right) = \frac{{{{\bf{e}}^t} + {{\bf{e}}^{ - t}}}}{2}\hspace{0.25in}\hspace{0.25in}\sinh \left( t \right) = \frac{{{{\bf{e}}^t} - {{\bf{e}}^{ - t}}}}{2}\]
  3. Be careful when using “normal” trig function vs. hyperbolic functions. The only difference in the formulas is the “\(+ a^{2}\)” for the “normal” trig functions becomes a “\(- a^{2}\)” for the hyperbolic functions!
  4. Formula #4 uses the Gamma function which is defined as \[\Gamma \left( t \right) = \int_{{\,0}}^{{\,\infty }}{{{{\bf{e}}^{ - x}}{x^{t - 1}}\,dx}}\]

    If \(n\) is a positive integer then,

    \[\Gamma \left( {n + 1} \right) = n!\]

    The Gamma function is an extension of the normal factorial function. Here are a couple of quick facts for the Gamma function

    \[\begin{array}{c}\Gamma \left( {p + 1} \right) = p\Gamma \left( p \right)\\ p\left( {p + 1} \right)\left( {p + 2} \right) \cdots \left( {p + n - 1} \right) =\displaystyle \frac{{\Gamma \left( {p + n} \right)}}{{\Gamma \left( p \right)}}\\ \Gamma \left( {\displaystyle \frac{1}{2}} \right) = \sqrt \pi \end{array}\]
