A comprehensive Cosserat rod drill-string model for arbitrary well geometry that includes the dynamics of the cutting and lateral contact

Hector E. Goicoechea, Roberta Lima, Fernando S. Buezas, Rubens Sampaio

Summary: In this paper, a comprehensive continuous Cosserat rod model is developed to study the dynamics of a drill-string. The model can simulate the 3-D dynamics of the system, including lateral, axial and torsional motion, and includes damping effects and a velocity-independent bit-rock interaction formulation. The study compares the model's predictions with two other models and finds divergences in the signals obtained with the Cosserat model, indicating that the new continuous approach can capture aspects of the dynamics that cannot be modeled with low-dimensional representations. The study also evaluates the drilling efficiency and finds that axial oscillations have a positive effect on drilling performance, while torsional stick-slip has a negative effect.

Summary: This paper presents a combined semi-analytical finite element (SAFE) and perfectly matched layer method for accurately predicting the dispersion, attenuation, and polarization modes of surface acoustic waves (SAWs) in materials. The method is validated by comparing the simulated results with exact three-dimensional elasticity theory-based solutions, and the effects of material anisotropy and residual stress on SAWs are discussed. The method is also applied to practical examples and the differences and similarities of two common acoustoelastic theories are discussed.

Revisiting the frozen gust assumption through the aeroacoustic scattering of wavepackets by a semi-infinite plate

Sonya Tiomkin, Justin W. Jaworski

Summary: This paper presents an analytic solution for the aerodynamic noise generated by a traveling wavepacket passing near the edge of a rigid semi-infinite flat plate. The solution is derived in the time domain for a wavepacket of either constant or spatially-varying wavenumber, and novel expressions are obtained for the incident and scattered sound fields. The study shows that the wavenumber modification has a significant effect on the incident field but not on the scattered field amplitude, while the phase difference between the incident and scattered fields depends strongly on the spatial variation in the wavepacket wavenumber.

Shahram Hadian Jazi, Mostafa Hadian, Keivan Torabi

Summary: Non-uniformity and damage are the main focus in studying vibrations of beam elements. An exact closed-form explicit solution for the transverse displacement of a nonuniform multi-cracked beam is introduced using generalized functions and distributional derivative concepts. By introducing non-dimensional parameters, the motion equation and its closed-form solution are obtained based on four fundamental functions. The impact of crack count, location, intensity, and boundary conditions on natural frequency and mode shape is evaluated through numerical study.

On improving low-frequency sound absorption using a compound microperforated panel backed by a panel-type resonator with tuned multi-frequency resonators

Wai Yeen Yeang, Dunant Halim, Xiaosu Yi, Hao Chen

Summary: This study aims to broaden the absorption bandwidth and improve low frequency sound absorption of a microperforated panel (MPP) by investigating the effects of tuned multi-frequency resonators attached to a flexible panel. The research shows that the placement, quantity, and configuration of the resonators significantly influence the sound absorption characteristics. Circular arrangement of multiresonators helps achieve a more uniform sound absorption coefficient. Experimental results demonstrate that using circularly-arranged multi-frequency resonators with a 2% mass ratio as the backing can achieve wide low-frequency half-bandwidth and improved absorption coefficient.
