In this study, a three-dimensional finite element dynamics model of the drill-string is established, taking into consideration the dynamic friction model and buckling effect. The modified dynamics model is verified to have higher computational accuracy through laboratory experiments. A parameter study is conducted based on the dynamics model, revealing significant effects of the exciting force amplitude, drilling fluid density, axial force, friction coefficient, and drill-string dimension on the friction reduction performance and effective propagation distance of axial vibration. A prediction model for vibration propagation distance is established, enabling efficient optimization of axial vibration parameters in horizontal well drilling. This study can provide theoretical guidance for safely and efficiently reducing sliding friction in the exploitation of unconventional oil and gas reservoirs.
