Hi all , i hav studied that transients cannt be analysed using fourier.If transient is a nonperodic function even then it can be analysed usiing fourier.Only laplace can be used to analyse transients.
Any response in this regard would be helpful.

without going into mathematical details I believe this has got to do with the fact that damping effects cannot be captured in fourier transform. It deals only with radian frequency characterisation of a system not the neper frequency or the damping coefficient which are needed to fully characterise transients. Hence the need for laplace transform
