Re: question

NIntegrate evaluates its arguments symbolically before it does numerical evaluation.  So the problem is F1 and factor2 are being evaluated symbolically when g is evaluated and it's that you want to suppress not the evaluation of g with non-numeric arguments.  That said there are other issues with evaluating your expressions numerically:

(Debug) In[1]:= r1=1;
r2=2;
beta2[t_]:={r1*Cos[2*Pi*t],r2*Sin[2*Pi*t]}

beta1[t_]:=beta2[t+4.8*t^2*(t-1)^2]

=
q2[t_]:=FunctionExpand[beta2'[t]/Sqrt[Norm[beta2'[t]]],Assumptions->t\[Element]Reals&&beta2'\[Element]Vectors[2,Reals]]

=
q1[s_]:=FunctionExpand[beta1'[s]/Sqrt[Norm[beta1'[s]]],Assumptions->s\[Element]Reals&&beta2'\[Element]Vectors[2,Reals]]


a[t_,z_]:=2*q1[t].q2'[z]//FunctionExpand
b[t_,z_]:=q1[t].q2[z]//FunctionExpand
c[t_,z_]:=2*q1'[t].q2[z]//FunctionExpand


F1[t_,z_?NumericQ]:=c[t,z]/b[t,z]
F2[t_,z_]:=a[t,z]/b[t,z]



factor1[s_,z_]:=Exp[-NIntegrate[F2[s,u],{u,0,z}]]

factor2[s_,z_?NumericQ]:=Exp[NIntegrate[F2[s,u],{u,0,z}]]

g[s_,z_]:=NIntegrate[factor2[s,tau]*F1[s,tau],{tau,0,z}]

y[s_,z_]:=factor1[s,z]*g[s,z]

y[.2,.3]
(Debug) During evaluation of In[1]:= NIntegrate::slwcon: Numerical integration converging too slowly; suspect one of the following: singularity, value of the integration is 0, highly oscillatory integrand, or WorkingPrecision too small. >>

(Debug) During evaluation of In[1]:= NIntegrate::errprec: Catastrophic loss of precision in the global error estimate due to insufficient WorkingPrecision or divergent integral. >>

You may want to plot your function and choose different regions of integration.
