Abstract
In this paper, a generalized formula for the definite integral of three associated Legendre polynomials of the first kind that arises in various physical applications is given in terms of the 3F2 hypergeometric function and the 3 - j symbols. The special case, when the integral reduces to a particularly simple familiar expression, is also mentioned.

These include avoiding the indeterminate parts of the equations at the boundaries, and handling the nonlinear part for which central differences result in diagonally nondominant *Author to whom all correspondence should be addressed.
