Sumudu Transform - Practical Importance

Practical Importance

In mechanical and material engineering, the Laplace–Carson transform

$C\{f(t)\} = G(p) = \int_0^\infty pe^{-pt}f(t)\,dt\qquad(3)$

is used in the study of the behavior of linear visco-elastic materials. When the linear visco-elastic constitutive law is transformed to the Laplace–Carson domain, its integral form reduces to the simple . This is not the case when using the Laplace transform itself. Some other constitutive laws are more appropriately described by the Carson transform,

$Car\{f(t)\} = G_{Car}(p) = p\int_0^\infty e^{-pt}f(t)\,dt\qquad(4)$

with the p in front of the integral.

Famous quotes containing the words practical and/or importance:

“Not many appreciate the ultimate power and potential usefulness of basic knowledge accumulated by obscure, unseen investigators who, in a lifetime of intensive study, may never see any practical use for their findings but who go on seeking answers to the unknown without thought of financial or practical gain.”
—Eugenie Clark (b. 1922)

“I can never bring you to realize the importance of sleeves, the suggestiveness of thumb-nails, or the great issues that may hang from a boot-lace.”
—Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (1859–1930)
