Title: Buckling and dynamic analysis of drill strings for core sampling

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/662035· OSTI ID:662035

This supporting document presents buckling and dynamic stability analyses of the drill strings used for core sampling. The results of the drill string analyses provide limiting operating axial loads and rotational speeds to prevent drill string failure, instability and drill bit overheating during core sampling. The recommended loads and speeds provide controls necessary for Tank Waste Remediation System (TWRS) programmatic field operations.
