Laplace transform: History, Applications, Regions & Measurement

In mathematics, the Laplace transform, named after Pierre-Simon Laplace (/ləˈplɑːs/), is an integral transform that converts a function of a real variable (usually ⁠ t {\displaystyle t} ⁠, in the time domain) to a function of a complex variable s {\displaystyle s} (in the complex-valued frequency domain, also known as s-domain or s-plane). The functions…
