By generating 2-directional vibration in a xy plane of workpiece table, a newly developed micro drilling using 2-directional vibration was carried out. The vibration was produced by applying sinusoidal voltages to the orthogonally arranged piezoelectric materials built in the workpiece excitation table. Through the micro-drilling experiments using poly-carbonate and brass material, it was found that micro drilling using 2-directional vibration in a workpiece table could be an efficient method to enhance the form accuracy of machined workpiece by suppressing burr formation at both entry and exit region. A higher form accuracy could be obtained by increasing stiffness of feeding mechanism, decrease of geometric tolerance of combining jig, and development of high performance excitation table which generates amplified vibration at higher frequency.

During drilling, the precipitation velocity of cuttings within an annulus depends on the density and configuration of the cuttings, and on the density, viscosity, and rheological characteristics of the drilling fluid. In directional drilling in particular, it is difficult to adjust and control the cuttings. In contrast to vertical drilling, it is very important to evaluate the flow characteristics of a drilling flow field. However, research on the transfer features of cuttings is inadequate. In this study, in order to identify transfer features of cuttings, an experiment was performed under wide-ranging conditions by constructing a slim hole annulus ($44mm{\times}30mm$) device. In this experiment, the particle volume fraction were influenced by particle size, particle concentration within the flow, pipe rotation, flow volume, and inclination of the annulus. In addition, a mathematical formula for volumetric concentration was deduced and compared to the test results and behavior of cuttings under the other drilling condition was made to be predicted. Therefore, this study can provide meaningful data for vertical and horizontal drilling, and for directional drilling.

Drilling Mud Treatment Systems are widely used for Oil Gas drilling mud circulation, horizontal directional drilling mud recycling, geothermal drilling, mining, coal exploration drilling, water well drilling. Degasser is a device used in drilling to remove gasses from drilling fluid which could otherwise form bubbles. For small amounts of entrained gas in a drilling fluid, the degasser can play a major role of removing small bubbles that a liquid film has enveloped and entrapped. As with the desander, its purpose is to remove unwanted solids from the mud system. The smaller cones allow the desilter to efficiently remove smaller diameter drill solids. In this study, a simulation study is conducted on the degasser of the facility in the Mud Treatment System to conduct a performance review on the gas separation in the mud.

수직 시추와 다르게 방향성 시추작업에서 발생하는 드릴스트링(drill string) 변형, 케이싱(casing) 마모, 키 씨팅(key seating) 등의 문제를 방지하기 위해서는 시추 궤도 내에서 발생하는 토크(torque)와 드래그(drag)가 최소화되어야 한다. 토크와 드래그의 크기는 시추 궤도 형태, 이수(mud), 드릴스트링의 종류 그리고 킥오프 지점(KOP, kick-off point)과 같은 매개변수들에 의해 결정되기 때문에 시추 궤도 설계 과정에서 고려하여 설계하여야 한다. 본 연구에서는 가장 일반적인 방향성 시추 궤도인 빌드-홀드(Build-hold) 형태의 시추 궤도에 킥오프 지점이 각기 다른 시추 궤도를 선정하였고, 분포하중 모델(analytical friction model)을 이용하여 각 구간내에서의 분포하중을 계산하여 궤도 전체에 대한 토크와 드래그를 계산하였다. 또한 매개변수에 따른 분석 값을 비교하여 분포하중이 최소로 발생하는 최적의 시추 궤도를 선정하였다. 분석결과 분포 하중을 최소화하기 위해서는 윤활성이 높은 이수를 사용, 궤도 형태에 따른 알맞은 킥오프 지점과 가능한 최소의 도그-래그를 지정하여 설계하는 것이 효과적임을 알 수 있었다. 이러한 결과는 분포하중을 최소화하기 위한 모든 방향성 시추 궤도 설계에 사용된다.

Worldwide growth in hydrocarbon and energy demand is driving the oil and gas companies to drill more wells in complex situations such as areas with high-pressure, high-temperature conditions. As a result, in recent years the number of wells in these conditions have been increased significantly. Wellbore instability is one of the main issues during the drilling operation especially for directional and horizontal wells. Many researchers have studied the wellbore stability in complex situations and developed mathematical models to mitigate the instability problems before drilling operation. In this work, a fully coupled thermoporoelastic model is developed to study the well stability in high-pressure, high-temperature conditions. The results show that the performance of the model is highly dependent on the truly evaluated rock mechanical properties. It is noted that the rock mechanical properties should be evaluated at elevated pressures and temperatures. However, in many works, this is skipped and the mechanical properties, which are evaluated at room conditions, are entered into the model. Therefore, an accurate stability analysis of high-pressure, high-temperature wells is achieved by measuring the rock mechanical properties at elevated pressures and temperatures, as the difference between the model outputs is significant.

최근 비개착 공법 중의 하나로 도심지에서 가스관이나 유틸리티관의 건설에서 수평굴착에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있다. 수평굴착에서 가장 문제가 되는 것 중에 하나는 굴착 시 굴착경의 안정성이다. 이러한 굴착경의 불안정은 지반 전체의 붕괴로 이어질 우려가 있기 때문이다. 본 연구에서는 유한요소 해석을 이용하여 굴착경의 보호를 위해 적용하는 점토압이 굴착경의 안전성에 미치는 영향을 살펴보았다. 굴착경 바깥쪽으로 가해지는 점토압이 깊이별로 일정하게 적용되었을 경우와 굴착 깊이가 깊어짐에 따라 큰 점토압이 작용했을 경우로 나누어 그 안전성을 살펴보았다. 유한요소 해석결과 굴착경 입구(앝은깊이)에서의 큰 점토압은 굴착경의 조기 파괴를 가져왔다. 따라서 입구에는 작은 점토압, 굴착 심도가 깊은 곳에서는 큰 점토압이 요구된다. 본 연구를 통해 실제 수평굴착에서 굴착경의 안정성을 확보하기 위한 최대 점토압을 예측하는데 도움이 될 것으로 기대된다.

Surgeon dentists usually rely on their experiential judgments from patients' oral plaster casts and medical images to determine the positional and directional information of implant fixtures and to perform drilling tasks during dental implant surgical operations. This approach, however, may cause some errors and deteriorate the quality of dental implants. Computer-aided methods have been introduced as supportive tools to alleviate the shortcomings of the conventional approach. In this paper, we present an approach of 3D dental implant simulation which can provide the realistic and immersive experience of dental implant information. The dental implant information is primarily composed of several kinds of 3D mesh models obtained as follows. Firstly, we construct 3D mesh models of jawbones, teeth and nerve curves from the patient's dental images using software $Mimics^{TM}$. Secondly, we construct 3D mesh models of gingival regions from the patient's oral impression using a reverse engineering technique. Thirdly, we select suitable types of implant fixtures from fixture database and determine the positions and directions of the fixtures by using the 3D mesh models and the dental images with software $Simplant^{TM}$. Fourthly, from the geometric and/or directional information of the jawbones, the gingival regions, the teeth and the fixtures, we construct the 3D models of surgical guide stents which are crucial to perform the drilling operations with ease and accuracy. In the application phase, the dental implant information is combined with the tangible interface device to accomplish 3D dental implant simulation. The user can see and touch the 3D models related with dental implant surgery. Furthermore, the user can experience drilling paths to make holes where fixtures are implanted. A preliminary user study shows that the presented approach can be used to provide dental students with good educational contents. With future work, we expect that it can be utilized for clinical studies of dental implant surgery.

An experimental investigation is carried out to study 2-phase vertically upward hydraulic transport of solid particles by water and non-Newtonian fluids in a slim hole concentric annulus with rotation of the inner cylinder. Rheology of particulate suspensions in viscoelastic fluids is of importance in many applications such as particle removal from surfaces, transport of proppants in fractured reservoir and cleaning of drilling holes, etc. In this study a clear acrylic pipe was used in order to observe the movement of solid particles. Annular fluid velocities varied from 0.2 m/s to 3.0 m/s. Pressure drops and average flow rate and particle rising velocity are measured. For both water and 0.2% CMC solutions, the higher the concentration of the solid particles is, the larger the pressure gradients become.
