How to solve for exponent that is a constant variable in sum series

262 Views Asked by At

This is something of an extension of this question which is currently unanswered. I've done some rearranging of my initial equation which was originally:

$$ \frac{M_t}{M_\infty} = 1 - \frac{32}{\pi} * \sum_{n=1}^{25}\frac{exp(-q^2_nDt/R^2)}{q_n^2} * \sum_{p=0}^{100} \frac{exp(-(2p+1)^2)\pi^2Dt/H^2)}{(2p+1)^2} $$

and simplified it to perhaps make it easier to answer. My equation is now:

$$ A = \sum_{n=1}^{25}\sum_{p=0}^{100}\frac{(E_nG_p)^D}{F_nI_p} $$

I am trying to solve for D; all other values are known. I'm just a bit stumped on how to isolate D.

Update: Here are some examples of data used in the original equation.

$\frac{M_t}{M_\infty}$ = 0.663228201

$t$ = 1123000

$H$ = 0.003235088

$R$ = 0.001268375

$D$ = 1.13816081338369290421042023809E-13

$q_1$ = 2.404825557695772768621631879326454643124244909145967135706

$q_2$ = 5.520078110286310649596604112813027425221865478782909853757
