where is the Laplace transform. The Bromwich integral is thus sometimes simply called the inverse Laplace transform.
The Laplace transform and the inverse Laplace transform together have a number of properties that make them useful for analysing linear dynamic systems.
The Bromwich integral, also called the Fourier-Mellin integral, is a path integral defined by:
where the integration is done along the vertical line x=c in the complex plane such that c is greater than the real part of all singularities of F(s).
The name is for Thomas John I'Anson Bromwich (1875-1929).
