Abstract
The solution of the differential equation of most physical systems is in two parts. The transient solution or natural response is that part of the total response that approaches zero as time approaches infinity (complementary function), while the steady-state solution or forced response is that part of the total response that does not approach zero as time approaches infinity (particular integral).
