Transfer Functions and the Laplace Transform

An intro to the mysteries of the frequency domain and Laplace transform and how they're used to understand mechanical and electrical systems.

Pass back and forth between the time domain and the frequency domain using the Laplace Transform and its inverse.
Use a toolbox for computing with the Laplace Transform.
Describe the behavior of systems using the pole diagram of the transfer function.
Model for systems that have feedback loops.
Model sudden changes with delta functions and other generalized functions.
