Hello, I have been working on this problem. I have to use Laplace Transformation for this equation:
EQN = D2y+ 5*Dy + y == 8*Du + u (D2y is second order derrivative ). I was told to treat u(t) as a step function, u(t) change from 0 to 1. This is so far my cod
% Inverse of the Laplace Transform:
y=ilaplace(Y,s,t)
I compare the result and my code was wrong and I know it must be something with u(t). I need to help to correct the above code. Thank you in advance.

I understand that the code you have provided is not giving the correct output. After analyzing the code, here are some observations I have
  • There is no need to add ‘assume([t Y]>0)’ if we are looking for generalized output
  • As u(t) is step function, value of ‘u’ should be equal to ‘heaviside(t)’
  • Variable ‘Du’ must be defined the way ‘Dy’ has been defined.
