I am not sure that the lack of a strong simplifier is to blame that
I don't see a slope in those systems that can solve the integral.

Now I was trying to compute the slope, by using a definite
integral over the period instead of a indefinite integral. And I got this:

The simpler problem with cos(t) gives me:

(1) -> integrate(cos(t)*(2+cos(t))/100, t = 0..2*pi)

        (cos(2 pi) + 4)sin(2 pi) + 2 pi
   (1)  -------------------------------
                      200

Can I force sin(2 pi) getting computed as well?

The more complex problem with cos(t)^(1/3) gives me:

(2) -> integrate(cos(t)^(1/3)*(2+cos(t))/100, t = 0..2*pi)

   (2)  "potentialPole"

How can I tell the system that ^(1/3) should be real root?
