Series solutions of coupled differential equations with one regular singular point

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

We consider two linear second-order ordinary differential equations. r=0 is a regular singular point of these equations. Applying the classical Method of Frobenius, we do not obtain any indicial equation and therefore no solution, because the differential equations are coupled.

In this paper, we present an extended Method of Frobenius on a coupled system of two ordinary differential equations. These equations come from the micropolar theory, which is one of the three kinds of the new 3M physics
