Laplace transforms are an adapted integral form of a differential equation (created and introduced by the French mathematician Pierre-Simon Laplace (1749-1827)) used to describe electrical circuits and physical processes. Adapted from previous notions given by other notable mathematicians and engineers like Joseph-Louis Lagrange (1736-1812) and Leonhard Euler (1707-1783), Laplace transforms are used to be a more efficient and easy-to-recognize form of a mathematical equation.

Standard Form

This is the standard form of a Laplace transform that a function will undergo.
