Abstract
The modified Emden-type is being investigated by mathematicians as well as physicists for about a century. However, there exist no exact explicit solution of this equation, ẍ + αxẋ + βx<sup>3</sup> = 0 for arbitrary values of α and β . In this work, the exact analytical explicit solution of modified Emden-type (MEE) equation is derived for arbitrary values of α and β . The Lagrangian and Hamiltonian of MEE are also worked out. The solution is also utilized to find exact explicit analytical solution of Force-free Duffing oscillator-type equation. And exact explicit analytical solution of two - dimensional Lotka-Volterra System is also worked out.
