Table Notes
1. This list is not a complete listing of Laplace transforms and only contains some of
the more commonly used Laplace transforms and formulas.
2. Recall the definition of hyperbolic functions.
et + e - t et - e - t
cosh ( t ) = sinh ( t ) =
2 2
3. Be careful when using “normal” trig function vs. hyperbolic functions. The only
difference in the formulas is the “+ a2” for the “normal” trig functions becomes a
“- a2” for the hyperbolic functions!
4. Formula #4 uses the Gamma function which is defined as
•
G( t ) = Ú e - x xt - 1 dx
0
If n is a positive integer then,
G( n + 1) = n !
The Gamma function is an extension of the normal factorial function. Here are a
couple of quick facts for the Gamma function
G( p + 1) = pG( p )
G( p + n )
p ( p + 1)( p + 2 )L ( p + n - 1) =
G( p )
