alfa[t_] := {t^2, 4 t, 8 t^3}
normt[t_] = Simplify[Norm[alfa[t]], t > 0]
t*Sqrt[64*t^4 + t^2 + 16]
Clear[int];
int[a_] =
FullSimplify[Integrate[normt[t], {t, 1, a}, Assumptions -> {a > 0}]]
(1/8192)*(16*Sqrt[64*a^4 + a^2 +
16]*(128*a^2 + 1) +
4095*ArcSinh[(128*a^2 + 1)/

(9/2)*(4128 + 455*Log[91/5]))
Plot[int[a], {a, 0, 2}]
