Expand $\sinh^2{x}$ into exponentials, and let $u=e^{-2 x}$. You end up with $$ 2 \pi^4 \int_{e^{-4 \mathrm{arccosh}}(\pi)}^1 \frac{du}{1+2 (2 \pi^4-1) u + u^2} $$ This is a standard integral which results in $$\frac{1}{2 \pi^2\sqrt{\pi^4-1}} \mathrm{arctanh}{\left ( \frac{2 (\pi^2-1)^{3/2}}{\pi (2\pi^2-1)} \right )} $$ |

Set $u=\frac{\sinh(x)}{\pi^2}$. Then $$du=\frac{\cosh(x)}{\pi^2} dx$$ $$dx=\frac{\pi^2}{\cosh(x)} du=\frac{\pi^2}{\sqrt{1+u^2}} du$$ Your integral becomes $$\int_{0}^{2 \rm arccosh{\pi}} \frac{dx}{1+\frac{\sinh^2(x)}{\pi^4}}=\pi^2 \int_{0}^{a}\frac{du}{(1+u^2)^{3/2}}$$ where $a=\frac{\sinh(2 \rm arccosh{\pi})}{\pi^2}=\frac{2\sqrt{\pi^2-1}}{\pi}$, using classical hyperbolic relations. The last integral is well-known and shouldn't be too difficult. |
