Approximations to π Derived from Integrals with Nonnegative Integrands

TL;DR: In this paper, Lucas et al. derived approximate approximations to π derived from integrals with nonnegative integrands, and used them to obtain a nonnegative approximation of π.

Yet Another Table of Integrals.

TL;DR: In this article, a collection of sums and integrals has been harvested from the mathematical and physical literature in unstructured ways, and its main use is backtracking the original sources whenever an integral of the reader's application resembles one of the items in the collection.
