Stability of the equilibrium of rotating drillstrings

  • Published:
International Applied Mechanics Aims and scope

Abstract

The quasistatic stability of a rotating drillstring under longitudinal force and torque is analyzed. Constitutive equations are derived, and a technique to solve them is proposed. It is shown that the buckling mode of the drillstring is helical within a section subjected to compressive forces
