Integration of cosh ( bessel function )

Click For Summary
The discussion focuses on the integration of the expression r * cosh(I0(r)), where r is the variable and I0 is the zero order modified Bessel function of the first kind. The original poster is seeking a standard solution for this integration in the context of electrokinetic flow in microfluidics. There is skepticism about the possibility of simplifying the integral, as composite functions typically resist simplification. Participants are encouraged to provide insights or solutions regarding this specific integration challenge. The inquiry highlights the complexity of integrating functions involving Bessel functions in applied mathematics.

Hi,

I am working on the derivation of an equation on electrokinetic flow in microfluidic.

I am stuck at a point that need me to do an integration in the form of

r * cosh (Io(r))

where r = variable to be integrated
I0 = zero order modified bessel function of the first kind

Is there any standard solution for this type of integration?

Thank a lot in advance for any advice provided.

I do not believe that can be simplified, integral of composite functions usually cannot.
