FORMULA
a(k) = 3(36k^6-k^4+k^2)/2.
G.f.: 18z(1+z)(3+167z+740z^2+167z^3+3z^4)/(1-z)^7.
EXAMPLE
a(1)=54; indeed, the benzenoid consists of 1 hexagon and each of its six edges contributes 3*3 towards the Szeged index; 6*9 = 54.
MAPLE
a := proc (n) options operator, arrow: 54*n^6-(3/2)*n^4+(3/2)*n^2 end proc: seq(a(n), n = 1 .. 30);
