Objectives
In this part we develop mathematical models from schematics of physical
systems. We will discuss the transfer functions in the frequency domain
As we proceed, we will notice that in every case the first step in developing a
mathematical model is to apply the fundamental physical laws of science and
engineering.
For example, when we model electrical networks, Ohms law and Kirchhoffs laws,
which are basic laws of electric networks, will be applied initially. We will sum
voltages in a loop or sum currents at a node.
When we study mechanical systems, we will use Newtons laws as the fundamental
guiding principles. Here we will sum forces or torques.
From these equations we will obtain the relationship between the systems output and
input.

Partial-Fraction Expansion
To find the inverse Laplace transform of a complicated function, we can convert the
function to a sum of simpler terms for which we know the Laplace transform of each
term. The result is called a partial-fraction expansion
Using partial-fraction expansion, we will be able to expand functions like 2/( + + 5) into a
sum of terms and then find the inverse Laplace transform for each term
We will now consider three cases and show for each case how an () can be
expanded into partial fractions.

Ex.
ch2p1throughch2p8 in Appendix B. (1) represent polynomials, (2) find roots of polynomials, (3) multiply polynomials, and (4)
find partial-fraction expansions. Finally, Example 2.3 will be solved using MATLAB.

The Transfer Function
We are now ready to formulate the system representation by establishing a viable definition
for a function that algebraically relates a systems output to its input.
This function will allow separation of the input, system, and output into three separate and
distinct parts, unlike the differential equation.
where c(t) is the output, r(t) is the input, and the ais, bis, and the form of the differential equation represent the system.
Taking the Laplace transform of both sides,
