Problem 2.4.18 from Peter Olver, Intoduction to Partial differential equations, 4th edition.
Solve for \(u(x,t)\) \[ u_{tt} - u_{xx} - \frac {2}{x} u_x = 0 \]
With \(u(x,0)=0,u_t(x,0)=g(x)\). Note, in the book, it says to assume \(g(x)\) is even function. In the code below, this assumption is not used. When I find the correct way to implement this assumption in CAS, will have to re-run these.

ClearAll["Global`*"]; pde = D[u[x, t], {t, 2}] - D[u[x, t], {x, 2}] - 2/x*D[u[x,t],x] == 0; ic = {u[x,0]==0,Derivative[0,1][u][x,0]==g[x]}; sol = AbsoluteTiming[TimeConstrained[DSolve[{pde, ic}, u[x, t], {x, t}], 60*10]];
