Estimating $left |log(z) right |$ to calculate an integral?
$begingroup$
I'm doing the classical example of treating the integral $int_{0}^{infty }frac{log(x)}{left (1+x^2 right )^2}dx$ using residue theorem on the function $$f(z)=frac{log(z)}{left (1+z^2 right )^2}$$
I consider the contour $gamma$ comprising two semi-circular arcs with radii $R$ and $epsilon$ (having redefined the logarithm by deleting the negative imaginary axis).
I'm having trouble with estimating the part of $gamma$ on the semi-circle $left | z right |=R$. I have:
$$left |int_{zin gamma ,left | z right |=R}f(z) right |leq int_{0}^{pi}left | f(Re^{itheta })iRe^{itheta } right |dthetaleq int_{0}^{pi}R frac{sqrt{log^{2}(R)+theta ^{2}}}{(R^{2}-1)^{2}}dtheta $$
My book does the estimation:
$$left | f(z) right |leq frac{2log(R)}{(R^{2}-1)^{2}}$$
How did they get the $2log(R)$ estimation?
Thank's in advance.

Assuming that $R$ is large enough we clearly have $theta^2 leq 3log^2(R)$ for any $thetain[0,pi]$.

@JackD'Aurizio So I write that I take $R$ large enough to have that $log^2(R)geq frac{pi^2}{3}$ because $log^2(x)$ goes to infinity as x goes to infinity?

I would get the numerator as $le pi+ln R$ which I suppose is $le 2ln R$ for large enough $R$.
