SUMMARY

This discussion focuses on solving Bessel's Equation in the presence of points of indeterminacy, specifically at the origin (r=0) in cylindrical and spherical coordinates. The solution requires the use of Bessel functions of the second kind to address the singularity encountered at this point. Participants emphasize the necessity of a step-by-step approach to effectively develop the solution to the differential equations involved.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of Bessel's Equation and its applications
  • Familiarity with cylindrical and spherical coordinate systems

Hi,

I need help in the development of the soluccion of the differential equations when exist point of indeterminations, like in cylindrical and spheres coordinates in the center of the model, r:=0.

I need a help in how resolve the problem, but step by step, using the Bessel's equation.


thanks.

You will have to use a bessel function of the second kind if there's a singularity at r=0.
