Drilling engineering is a high input and risk underground project, which needs the real-time down-hole diagnosis and forecast technique. Drilling string vibration signals contain full and complex vibration waves, which contains the vibration of the drilling string by itself, the vibration stimulated by the interaction of bit and the formation, the vibration induced by colliding between drill st...

Scientific drilling to recover sediment core and fossil samples is a promising approach to increasing our understanding of species evolution in ancient lakes. Most lake drilling efforts to date have focused on paleoclimate reconstruction. However, it is clear from the excellent fossil preservation and high temporal resolution typical of lake beds that significant advances in evolutionary biolog...

INTRODUCTION The Ocean Drilling Program (ODP) is committed to deep-biosphere research and has constructed a new microbiological laboratory on board the JOIDES Resolution. The use of the JOIDES Resolution as a platform for deep-biosphere research requires that the recovered cores are suitable for microbiological study. The major concern is whether microbes from the drilling fluid are introduced ...

Fluorescent microspheres were applied in a novel fashion during subsurface drilling of permafrost and ground ice in the Canadian High Arctic to monitor the exogenous microbiological contamination of core samples obtained during the drilling process. Prior to each drill run, a concentrated fluorescent microsphere (0.5-microm diameter) solution was applied to the interior surfaces of the drill bi...

Abstract Since diamond-impregnated tools have a big share on for construction, the development of more efficient ones is necessary in near future. The drilling speed performance one concerns during new segments concrete core drilling. However, observations only based experiments can be very costly, considering quite demanding amount material and workforce. One solutions to overcome these issues...
