Maple gives the following as the ode type
[[_2nd_order, _linear, _nonhomogeneous]]
\[ \boxed {y^{\prime \prime }-y=\operatorname {Heaviside}\left (t -1\right )} \] With initial conditions \begin {align*} [y \left (0\right ) = 1, y^{\prime }\left (0\right ) = 0] \end {align*}
This is a linear ODE. In canonical form it is written as \begin {align*} y^{\prime \prime } + p(t)y^{\prime } + q(t) y &= F \end {align*}
Where here \begin {align*} p(t) &=0\\ q(t) &=-1\\ F &=\operatorname {Heaviside}\left (t -1\right ) \end {align*}
Hence the ode is \begin {align*} y^{\prime \prime }-y = \operatorname {Heaviside}\left (t -1\right ) \end {align*}
The domain of \(p(t)=0\) is \[
\{-\infty Solving using the Laplace transform method. Let \begin {align*} \mathcal {L}\left (y\right ) =Y(s) \end {align*}
Taking the Laplace transform of the ode and using the relations that \begin {align*} \mathcal {L}\left (y^{\prime }\right ) &= s Y(s) - y \left (0\right )\\ \mathcal {L}\left (y^{\prime \prime }\right ) &= s^2 Y(s) - y'(0) - s y \left (0\right ) \end {align*}
The given ode now becomes an algebraic equation in the Laplace domain \begin {align*} s^{2} Y \left (s \right )-y^{\prime }\left (0\right )-s y \left (0\right )-Y \left (s \right ) = \frac {{\mathrm e}^{-s}}{s}\tag {1} \end {align*}
But the initial conditions are \begin {align*} y \left (0\right )&=1\\ y'(0) &=0 \end {align*}
Substituting these initial conditions in above in Eq (1) gives \begin {align*} s^{2} Y \left (s \right )-s -Y \left (s \right ) = \frac {{\mathrm e}^{-s}}{s} \end {align*}
Solving the above equation for \(Y(s)\) results in \begin {align*} Y(s) = \frac {s^{2}+{\mathrm e}^{-s}}{s \left (s^{2}-1\right )} \end {align*}
Taking the inverse Laplace transform gives \begin {align*} y&= \mathcal {L}^{-1}\left (Y(s)\right )\\ &= \mathcal {L}^{-1}\left (\frac {s^{2}+{\mathrm e}^{-s}}{s \left (s^{2}-1\right )}\right )\\ &= \cosh \left (t \right )+2 \operatorname {Heaviside}\left (t -1\right ) \sinh \left (\frac {t}{2}-\frac {1}{2}\right )^{2} \end {align*}
Converting the above solution to piecewise it becomes \[
y = \left \{\begin {array}{cc} \cosh \left (t \right ) & t <1 \\ \cosh \left (t \right )+2 \sinh \left (\frac {t}{2}-\frac {1}{2}\right )^{2} & 1\le t \end {array}\right .
\] Simplifying the solution gives \[
y = \cosh \left (t \right )-\left (\left \{\begin {array}{cc} 0 & t <1 \\ 1-\cosh \left (t -1\right ) & 1\le t \end {array}\right .\right )
\]
The solution(s) found are the following \begin{align*}
\tag{1} y &= \cosh \left (t \right )-\left (\left \{\begin {array}{cc} 0 & t <1 \\ 1-\cosh \left (t -1\right ) & 1\le t \end {array}\right .\right ) \\
\end{align*} Verification of solutions
\[
y = \cosh \left (t \right )-\left (\left \{\begin {array}{cc} 0 & t <1 \\ 1-\cosh \left (t -1\right ) & 1\le t \end {array}\right .\right )
\] Verified OK.
