You can use one of a custom Taylor'd series of polynomial casings. In order to conserve such advanced designs as the lotus-odeltoid designs (not to mention the quartic ones), it takes four orders to acquire such technology.

The disadvantage of using such a case is poor performance during trigonometric skor motions. If these are required, then a truly logarithmic casing is, in fact, essential.
