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:

“Wisdom is not just knowing fundamental truths, if these are unconnected with the guidance of life or with a perspective on its meaning. If the deep truths physicists describe about the origin and functioning of the universe have little practical import and do not change our picture of the meaning of the universe and our place within it, then knowing them would not count as wisdom.”
—Robert Nozick (b. 1938)

“Think of the importance of Friendship in the education of men.... It will make a man honest; it will make him a hero; it will make him a saint. It is the state of the just dealing with the just, the magnanimous with the magnanimous, the sincere with the sincere, man with man.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
