(2:2) Where the Laplace Transform comes from (Arthur Mattuck, MIT)

Previous Part: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zvbdoSeGAgI

Prof. Arthur Mattuck, of the Department of Mathematics at MIT, explains the derivation of the Laplace Transform.

very interesting, i didn't know the way they derived the laplace transform. As an Engineering Student, i just apply the transform without knowing the origin.

Phenomenal! Most interesting. Most insightfull explanation of how Laplace (and other) transform(s) works.

It helped me appreciate Fourier transform like never before.

@tsyedtayyabshah Have another look at how log behaves with complex arguments.

[tsyedtayyabshah]

for me! this is not a correct explanation.How is he relating S with -Logx

S is intact a complex number S=A+jB

this guy is badass.

Wiadomo skąd to "s" się bierze, przynajmniej nie z dupy...

most teachers just copy whats written in textbooks to the board. but teachers like these do the actual teaching. this is how it's done.

soso is ja cool

[TashaM0901]

such a great explanation! love this!

[asddgfzg]

amazing explanation!

[jads92]

came here out of curiosity about Laplace transforms thinking they were ingenious constructs, and looking for an explanation about where they come from. I got exactly what I wanted. Thanks!
