  • In this study, the Riccati equation is resolved using the generalized recursive integrating factor method. By applying a non-linear transformation to the dependent variable $y(x)$ of the Riccati equation, a second-order linear differential equation is derived for a variable $u(x)$ that is related to $y(x)$ through the aforementioned transformation. The second-order differential equation is then addressed using the aforementioned integrating factors method to derive the general solution for $u(x)$, which is subsequently transformed back to obtain the general solution for $y(x)$, thereby resolving the Riccati equation. The general solution to the Riccati equation is presented, followed by solving a few illustrative application examples.
