integral of 1/(s^3-1)

\int \frac{1}{s ^{3} - 1} d s

\frac{1}{3} ln ∣ s - 1 ∣ - \frac{1}{6} ln 4 s^{2} + 4 s + 4 - \frac{1}{3} arctan (\frac{1}{3} (2 s + 1)) + C

Solution steps

\int \frac{1}{s ^{3} - 1} d s

Take the partial fraction of

\frac{1}{s ^{3} - 1} : \frac{1}{3 ( s - 1 )} + \frac{- s - 2}{3 ( s ^{2} + s + 1 )}

= \int \frac{1}{3 ( s - 1 )} + \frac{- s - 2}{3 ( s ^{2} + s + 1 )} d s

Apply the Sum Rule:

\int f (x) \pm g (x) d x = \int f (x) d x \pm \int g (x) d x

= \int \frac{1}{3 ( s - 1 )} d s + \int \frac{- s - 2}{3 ( s ^{2} + s + 1 )} d s

\int \frac{1}{3 ( s - 1 )} d s = \frac{1}{3} ln ∣ s - 1 ∣

\int \frac{- s - 2}{3 ( s ^{2} + s + 1 )} d s = \frac{1}{6 3} (- 3 ln 4 s^{2} + 4 s + 4 - 6 arctan (\frac{2 s + 1}{3}))

= \frac{1}{3} ln ∣ s - 1 ∣ + \frac{1}{6 3} (- 3 ln 4 s^{2} + 4 s + 4 - 6 arctan (\frac{2 s + 1}{3}))

Simplify

\frac{1}{3} ln ∣ s - 1 ∣ + \frac{1}{6 3} (- 3 ln 4 s^{2} + 4 s + 4 - 6 arctan (\frac{2 s + 1}{3})) : \frac{1}{3} ln ∣ s - 1 ∣ - \frac{1}{6} ln 4 s^{2} + 4 s + 4 - \frac{1}{3} arctan (\frac{1}{3} (2 s + 1))

= \frac{1}{3} ln ∣ s - 1 ∣ - \frac{1}{6} ln 4 s^{2} + 4 s + 4 - \frac{1}{3} arctan (\frac{1}{3} (2 s + 1))

Add a constant to the solution

= \frac{1}{3} ln ∣ s - 1 ∣ - \frac{1}{6} ln 4 s^{2} + 4 s + 4 - \frac{1}{3} arctan (\frac{1}{3} (2 s + 1)) + C
