  Emden-Fowler type equations are nonlinear differential equations that appear
in many fields such as mathematical physics, astrophysics and chemistry. In
this paper, we perform an asymptotic analysis of a specific Emden-Fowler type
equation that emerges in a queuing theory context as an approximation of
voltages under a well-known power flow model. Thus, we place Emden-Fowler type
equations in the context of electrical engineering. We derive properties of the
continuous solution of this specific Emden-Fowler type equation and study the
asymptotic behavior of its discrete analog. We conclude that the discrete
analog has the same asymptotic behavior as the classical continuous
Emden-Fowler type equation that we consider.
