NONLINEAR DYNAMICS OF A DRILLSTRING IMMERSED IN A 3D CURVED WELL, SIMULATIONS AND EXPERIMENTS

The novelty of the proposed dynamics model is its ability to consider a realistic geometry of drilling assembly in 3D curved wells with fluid flows, and to give a complete study of the coupling phenomena between axial, torsional, and lateral vibrations.
