You can then choose how to deal with values of functions: tabulate, plot using mesh size of your choice, interpolate if you wish etc. Expert users may provide you more helpful advice, esp. re: numerical considerations.
Feb 24, 2014 at 6:55 comment added user12553 thanks for your answer. Yes the points you highlighted above are very correct and related to what I am working with. My aim is to obtain an explicit expression for the integral result and be able to plot it. The plot based on numerical integration looks quite good and seem to conform with the theory I am working on
