MATLAB Quiz • Tomorrow, March 13 • Same Time As Your Section (APM B432) • DON’T FORGET!!!! (NO MAKEUPS) Final Monday March 17, Here (Peterson 110), 3-6 PM Bring a Blue Book!
On Monday Using the Laplace Transform, we changed Initial Value Problems into Algebra Problems Example: Becomes: Inverse Transform:
Heavyside or “Step Function” Think of it as “Flipping a switch”
The Heavyside Function Can Be Used To Make Piecewise Continuous Functions
Laplace Transform With Discontinuous ODEs Models a system where “forces” change suddenly Need The Laplace Transform of Can Use This To Compute Inverse Transforms Too
