A forced resonance muonic-deuterium-tritium molecule formation is produced in multi-layer solid hydrogen isotopes by using the Ramsauer-Townsend effect. For the proposed multi-layer system, the coupled linear point dynamical equations are solved by the Monte-Carlo method using the Lsode computer code. The results obtained for the optimum layer thicknesses and tritium concentration are compared with the results of a solid homogeneous deuterium-tritium system with the same physical conditions (temperature, density, and tritium concentration). For the same physical conditions, the muon cycling coefficient of the two isotopes of deuterium-tritium is only 2.5% of the muon cycling coefficient of the proposed forced solid heterogeneous H/D/T fusion system. It is shown that with a very small tritium concentration (c(subscript t)=0.005), the obtained muon cycling rate and coefficient are 196 μs^(-1) and 186.
