Transfer function with non zero initial conditions

Click For Summary
To formulate the transfer function of a second-order differential system with non-zero initial conditions, a new dependent variable x(t) can be introduced, defined as x(t) = y(t) - y_0 - v_0t, where y_0 and v_0 are the initial position and velocity. This transformation allows the original equation to be rewritten in terms of x, effectively setting the initial conditions to zero (x(0) = 0 and x'(0) = 0). By applying this method, the transfer function can be derived without the complications of non-zero initial conditions. This approach simplifies the analysis and aids in obtaining the desired transfer function. Utilizing this technique is essential for accurate system modeling in control theory.

Hello guys, I'd just like to ask how can I formulate transfer function of second order differential system when I don't have zero initial conditions?
the equation is = y''(t) + B/m*y'(t) + k/m*y(t) = g y(0)= -L
don't care what parameters mean .. it's supposed to be solved in general

Thank you.
 
Maybe it helps to introduce a new dependent variable ##x(t) := y(t) - y_0 - v_0t## where ##y_0## and ##v_0## are your initial position and velocity? Then rewrite the ODE in terms of ##x## with ##x(0) = 0## and ##x'(0) = 0##.
