I am no expert on numerical ODEs. But here is what I get. Starting at the right, using the solution of (ODE3) with $U(x) = (c-x)^{1/2}+O((c-x)^{3/2})$ as $x \to c^-$, when I reach $c_o$ it looks like $$ U(x) = 1831.7 + 0.000103(x-c_o)^{1/2}-13916.8 (x-c_o)+O((x-c_o)^{3/2}) \qquad\text{as } x \to c_o^+ $$$$ U(x) = 1831.7 - 5769.99(x-c_o)^{1/2}-13916.8 (x-c_o)+O((x-c_o)^{3/2}) \qquad\text{as } x \to c_o^+ $$ Then, starting with the soution satisfying $$ U(x) = 1831.7 - 5769.99(c_o-x)^{1/2}-13916.8 (x-c_o)+O((c_o-x)^{3/2}) \qquad\text{as } x \to c_o^- $$$$ U(x) = 1831.7 + 0.000103 (c_o-x)^{1/2}-13916.8 (x-c_o)+O((c_o-x)^{3/2}) \qquad\text{as } x \to c_o^- $$ we end up with $0$ on the $(\log x)^2$ term: $$ U(x) = O(\;|\log x|\;) \qquad\text{as } x \to 0^+ $$ The graph seems to be positive everywhere! So we merely need to divide by the integral.

I have Maple working onHere is a plot. (It's slow goingNot very informative.)
