Fourier and Laplace Transforms
This textbook describes in detail the various Fourier and Laplace transforms that are used to analyze problems in mathematics, the natural sciences and engineering. These transforms decompose complicated signals into elementary signals, and are widely used across the spectrum of science and engineering. Applications include electrical and mechanical networks, heat conduction and filters. In contrast with other books, continuous and discrete transforms are given equal coverage.
- Textbook written for self-study, complete with illustrated definitions, theorems and concepts
