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:

“Philosophy, certainly, is some account of truths the fragments and very insignificant parts of which man will practice in this workshop; truths infinite and in harmony with infinity, in respect to which the very objects and ends of the so-called practical philosopher will be mere propositions, like the rest.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“Shall we then judge a country by the majority, or by the minority? By the minority, surely. ‘Tis pedantry to estimate nations by the census, or by square miles of land, or other than by their importance to the mind of the time.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
