I input into MAPLE the following differential eq & it returned that it is classified as an Emden-Fowler Differential Equation:

r^2*F"+1/r*F'-k^2*F=0   where F is a function of r

MAPLE was able to generate a solution.  I am attempting to figure out how this eq is actually solved & I typed in Emden-Fowler into the SEARCH window on this website & got ZERO results.

Anyone know of some good resources that shows the method of solving this diff eq?  Keep in mind I am an engineer not a mathematician so I need a source with nomenclature I understand.

 

thanx 4 any input
