✦ Synopsis
The problem about identification of resistance forces acting on a drill column moving in an inclined borehole is stated. It is supposed that the well trajectories can have geometrical imperfections in the shape of cylindrical spiral or plane cosinusoidal curves. The system of ordinary differential equations is derived on the basis of the theory of curvilinear flexible elastic rods. It permits one to describe static effects of the drill column bending accompanying the processes of its raising, lowering and rotating inside the borehole. Through the use of this system the direct and inverse problems of the drill column deforming are formulated for calculation of internal and external resistance forces acting on the drill column tube. The methods for numerical solution of the constructed equations are elaborated. With their use the phenomena of the drill columns motion and their frictional seizure inside the bore-holes are simulated for different geometrical imperfections and relations between the velocities and directions of their rotation and axial motion.
