Abstract: Nield-Kuznetsov functions of the first kind are studied, which are solutions of an inhomogeneous parabolic Weber equation, and have applications in fluid flow problems. Connection formulas are constructed between them, numerically satisfactory solutions of the homogeneous version of the differential equation, and a new complementary Nield-Kuznetsov function. Asymptotic expansions are then derived that are uniformly valid for large values of the parameter and unbounded real and complex values of the argument. Laplace transforms of the parabolic cylinder functions $W(a,x)$ and $U(a,x)$ are subsequently shown to be explicitly represented in terms of the complementary Nield-Kuznetsov function and closely related functions, and from these uniform asymptotic expansions are derived for the integrals.
