As for the Laplace Transform, it is mainly use in control system applications where the input/output include transient/damping/forcing signal waveforms (on and off unit circle) not only clean steady state signal waveforms (on unit circle). This paper provides a good overview of the sample usages of a Laplace Transform in Electrical and Electronics Engineering [1].
If what you meant by the duality Fourier Transform as FFT/IFFT, Laplace Transform has the equivalent in the form of Chirp-Z Transform (CZT) and recently discovered inverse CZT (ICZT), and the original HN discussions link of the discovery is also provided in my other comments. For CZT/ICZT potential useful application please check the other/older HN topic comments in [2].
Perhaps we should just wait and watch for the torrent of patent filings on this CZT/ICZT topic if the claim of ICZT is really true and feasible.
