The article presents a critical analysis of the methods of analytical, numerical and graphical problem solving on a computer. Problems are solved on the optimal dimensions of hollow geometric bodies (tanks for storing liquids), on the animation of the hinge mechanism, and on the dimensions of the Nautilus submarine. А new set of mathematical constants (numbers and expressions in the radicals), based on the optimization of geometric bodies is presented.

Using integral representations with carefully chosen rational functions as integrands, we find new families of transcendental numbers that are not U-numbers, according to Mahler's classification, represented by a series whose terms involve rising factorials and reciprocals of binomial coefficients analogous to Apéry type series. Explicit descriptions of these numbers are given as linear combinations with coefficients lying in a suitable real algebraic extension of rational numbers using elementary functions evaluated at arguments belonging to the same field. In this way, concrete examples of transcendental numbers which can be expressed as combinations of classical mathematical constants such as π and Baker periods are given together with upper bounds on their wn measures.

We present a method using contour integration to evaluate the definite integral of arctangent reciprocal logarithmic integrals in terms of infinite sums. In a similar manner, we evaluate the definite integral involving the polylogarithmic function L i k ( y ) in terms of special functions. In various cases, these generalizations give the value of known mathematical constants such as Catalan’s constant G, Aprey’s constant ζ ( 3 ) , the Glaisher–Kinkelin constant A, l o g ( 2 ) , and π .
