Laplace transforms find broad applications in the modelling of oscillators for energy harvesting (EH). Consider the displacement of
a mass-spring oscillator resting on a frictionless surface,
governed by the ODE
Aÿj + By = f(t)
(i) Suppose A=B= 1, and the force f(t) represents a push to the left of the mass over a time period from
t = 2π to t = 2π + a
for some a > 2π.
Let f(t) be
f(t)=
[u(t-2π)-u(t-(2π +a))]
such that a small a corresponds to a push of short duration, while a large a is a push of long duration. The function ult) is the unit
step function.
